Fuel Senders

701 Wings kit just arrived. Seriously thinking about putting the fuel senders on top of the tanks.  Anybody found a good way to avoid the skin from coming in contact with the sender?

Roger Hi from QSP  We have our 701 wing tanks with the fuel senders in the top of the tanks. The long range set of tanks has them on the  top so there is a drawing and a location already. Make the holes in top skin big enough to be able to remove the sender if needed. I than made a fiberglass cover that has a slight hump in it to cover the holes and it works very well. I can send pics if needed.
