I'm probably the only one who didn't figure this out or ask the right questions in advance, but I thought I'd pass this along to help prevent someone else from making the same mistake.
You have all probably read the notice published by Van's regarding their decision not to supply avionics kits, and which goes on to recommend suppliers who will like SteinAir and AFS, and to also list some basic subkits that Van's will offer for options people might like to install in their projects; things like the aileron trim kit and ELT. Anyway, one of the items on the list is the pitot mast. The notice says that the Dynon pitot mast will work with both heated and unheated pitots and even gives you the part number to order from Dynon. So I did. But I bought my Garmin heated pitot from SteinAir which, you guessed it, included a pitot mast. Dynon was a good sport about it and will allow me to return their pitot mast, but I thought I'd pass this along in case any of you guys were getting ready to order this part.
