A close look raised some interesting questions. The panel on the left hand side of the console, the one in the photo, is mounted on rivnuts along the bottom. But it appears to be riveted to the panel behind it (on the far right in the photo. That can’t be right. It turns out, it isn’t – it should also go onto rivnuts at its rear edge.
