This expands on the question a little in that I have been looking at upgrading my 430W and installing either G5's or GI275's along with an autopilot that will provide altitude hold. My legacy one is fully serviceable but of course is single axis.
I won't supply the name of the Garmin dealer providing this information but I hope it will give an indicative price for the different options.
________________________________________________
EFIS System
1) Garmin G5 System
Remove AI, DI, vac system & vac pump including correctly blanking. Removal of the king nav indicator currently connected to the GNS430W
Install a dual Garmin G5 system with EFIS and HSI, including GMU11 magnetometer, GAD29B nav interface, Lightning Protection Module (LPM) & GAD13/GTP59 OAT system. Interface with power, pitot/static system & GNS430W or GTNXi (will display VOR & GPS information). Install backup GPS antenna for G5 system (highly recommended) Set up, function testing & certification included.
G5 EFIS kit with LPM £1845+VAT
G5 HSI kit (inc LPM, GMU11 & GAD29B) £2425+VAT
OAT upgrade kit £387+VAT
Backup GPS antenna £145+VAT
Labour £2860+VAT
Misc installation materials £300 approx
Optional Autopilot Interface (if retaining existing Century AP) - interface with G5 system to provide heading & Nav information (inc GPSS). AI relocated to place of removed nav indicator
Labour £325+VAT (Note: the vacuum system would have to remain for this, so only the DI would be removed. This interface is not required if fitting the Garmin GFC500 Autopilot)
Misc components £120 approx
2) Garmin GI275 System
Removal of AI, DI & vac system (inc correctly blanking). Removal of indicator from GNS430W.
Installation of dual GI275 ADI with MFD(backup ADI) including GMU11 magnetometer, GTP59 OAT probe, backup GPS antennas (two required), backup batteries (both units), reversionary switch and GSB15 USB power supply/data port. Interface with pitot/static system, power, GNS/GTN. Set up, function testing & certification included (EASA STC pending).
GI275 ADAHRS Kit (inc backup battery & install kit) with GMU11 £3225 +VAT
GI275 ADAHRS Kit (inc backup battery & install kit) £2995 +VAT
GTP59 OAT probe £349 +VAT
GSB15 USB £190 +VAT
GSB15 mount plate (for fit standard instrument hole) £36+VAT
Back up GPS aerials £290 (for both) +VAT
Misc installation materials £400 approx
Labour £4030 +VAT
Optional Autopilot Interfaces:
To interface with the existing Century II AP, one GI275s will need to be the ADAHRS+AP version (which has third party AP support) (additional £695+VAT), labour £325+VAT, Misc components £180 approx. The GI275 will emulate the attitude allowing removal of the vacuum AI.
Note: Depending on the exact model of the Century Radio Coupler the second ADAHRS maybe required to be the +AP version to. Is it possible for you to confirm the exact radio coupler version you have (its the selector with the rotatory knob used to select the AP source HDG, NAV etc). The part number is 1C388##, its the ## numbers we need to know.
