O.K. build is finished - built the 2nd baro circuit, alternator control circuit, the alternator warning light and the EGT circuit. Everything is mounted and cuts in the housing are made... gonna post pics tomorrow.
As Frank mentioned in his "How-to" - the hex-standoffs for the MS3 daughtercard are ~2mm too long, so the USB port won't fit into its hole...
Apart from that I can only give the biggest kudos to Frank - as the Howto is perfect.

Cut the standof - now it fits

Other endplate - I cut an endplate of an old soundcard to put my DB15 connector in

Closed the lower DB37 hole with the included blanking plug

All closed and done... (damn it's tight in there)
