Aha okay.....

Yesterday I have bought a set of FlyEngravity second-hand glare wings, I will reconstruct my old desktop panels to make these glare wings fit.

But now finding some measurements,
MIP size is 151 cm ?
EFIS is 11,5 cm ?
MCP ???
Glare wings around 36 cm (average)

Regards,
Ray

MIP   152
EFIS    11
MCP    47
Wing   37
A few mm difference here and there do not really matter.
Just make sure you have minimum gap between these components ( if you have to use your own backlighting) and , most important, that the whole thing looks good!
When you build your structure better go from center (MCP) to the sides (Wings) than the opposite as you could end up with a few mm missing to fit the MCP  properly.
