    FWIW - I also Like A - the further the ELT is away from the passenger/copilot - the better!

    I prefer A, and I love that big glove box! Heck you could fit a 6 pack in it.

    You could make it out of plastic, don't forget to add a drain hole for the condensation and water, then get some of those freezer ice packs, and when you get to your destination, you can break out a cold one to celebrate. just don't drink then fly, the outcome could be fatal.

    there are 2 ways to feed this,,computer fans or an outside air source ,..the 2 outlets can be routed to your shoulders on each side,.set it in front of luggage area,...usually if your head is cool,..the rest of you is ok not sure if this is like the coolers sold on ACS or not,..never seen one up close
    the dark blue are ice packs,,the gaps around them are 1/2" the fan blows in from back and forces air past both sides of the freezer packs then to outlets

    I think you have a plan for your panel, no dilemma.

    If you want to air condition the plane just open the glove box door, but the Six Pack might get warm, you need to check your priorities. The guy that sells the Switchbox has an AC unit, it is basically a ice box, with the frozen ice bags, some water and a fan. Hell in Texas I'll need one this Summer.
