I was dumb enough to fallow the instructions on riveting the hat section. Then realized I couldn't inspect or replace any thing if needed. So I got out the drill drilled out all the rivet and put nutserts in every 4 or 5 hole for ease of removal for inspection.

RALPHWe are planning installation of the elevator cables in our Elite and the MAM supplied cable guides / hat section covers seem lacking. They have you rivet both down permanently. How do they expect to do an annual cable inspection or replace cable guides?
