I'm at the point of the fuse where the instructions say to plan your
antenna locations and their wiring before the floor/side panels are
installed permanently. I would hate to install them in any of those
locations. Where's everyone thinking about installing antennas? Is
there any room in the tunnel for antenna connectors and cables?

I have spent quite of bit of time looking at this and calling
people. I have posted some pictures here.

But basically, I found that the best place for the COM's are under
the rear seat in the second bay. This makes them far enough under
that they won't be hit by people getting in and out and still gives
you about 33" of spacing. Comant says that 24" is the minimum on
COM's and the transponder needs to be at least 36" from anything.
If you only do one COM then you will have it made. I put the
NAV/LOC/GS in the wingtip and the marker beacon in the other
wingtip.

Here is a link to the type I used with some pictures. Is the Ameri-
King AK-450 ELT. Van's sell two. I chose this one because it is
actually lighter with batteries. The without batteries weight can
be deceiving.

Just FWIW, the ELT manufactures usually recommend putting the ELT
antenna in the same bay as the ELT.
