Baggage Door Latch Pin

Hi Gents
 
Quick question; is the material for the baggage door latch pin & latch blocks provided in the kit or do you have to source it yourself? If its supplied I can't find it!!
 
Many thanks!!

Hello Rob,
 
Quick answer:  Smiley
 
You have to make the latch pins out of stiff aluminium tubing length that is supplied in a short 18 or 24'' length. The two UHMW/Delrin bits are also supplied and they are fairly small and easily mislaid.
 
On my RV-8A plans, the latch pin info is on the baggage door page.
 
Hope this helps.
