COLLINS ADF-650A TSO installation directions

Before you begin: Check to see if you received the proper faceplate insert. Are the numbers the same as your radio? Does it fit correctly? Although the holes and text will be the same, many faceplate manufacturers made different widths or heights of the same faceplate. (Just to make life a little more interesting)

1. Have this insert installed by an avionics shop if you do not have all the proper tools, are not a qualified technician or are not sure you are capable of doing this job. 
2. If your faceplate does not need painting go to #7. Use tape to mask the knobs and the clear faceplate lens. 
3. Fill any dents with a plastic auto body filler (Bondo) or similar material.
4. Lightly sand smooth with a fine grit sandpaper for good paint adhesion.
5. Paint the faceplate with a quality paint such as Krylon'sŪ 1613 Semi-Flat Black paint. If you want a silver border around the outer rim use a Testors' silver paint stick. They are found in most hobby stores.
6. Remove the protective tape around the knobs and lens.
7. Remove the old insert. 
8. Remove the double face tape backing from the new insert.
9. Place the new inserts onto faceplate.
10. Tell all your aircraft buddies about Aircraft Engravers and place the enclosed sticker on the metal case for future reference.
