For the new (and undocumented) feature you have implemented in your new chassis.
I am installing a new radio stack in a friends aircraft. The equipment is:
GMA 350
GTN 650
GNC 255
GTX 345

The new feature is a pair of holes, about 1/2 inch back from the front lip of each chassis, located in a punched depression, top and bottom, on both the left and right side. There is a small hole placed in each of these depressions and a 12 inch long #40 drill bit exactly fits in and through all of these holes.

Use two drill bits (left and right side) and all of the chassis align right up. And the dimples provide the proper chassis-to-chassis spacing so I no longer need to use four dimes (one in each corner) to get the proper chassis spacing.

I did not see this "feature" documented in any of the installation manuals, but I do want to thank whoever at your company came up with this idea. It is a time saver.
