KING KMA20 Audio Panel faceplate insert installation directions

Before you begin: Check to see if you received the proper faceplate insert. Are the numbers the same as your radio? Does it fit correctly? Although the holes and text will be the same, many faceplate manufacturers made different widths or heights of the same faceplate. (Just to make life a little more interesting)


  1. This faceplate insert is NOT PMA’d and CAN NOT be installed in US Certified aircraft unless the proper FAA paperwork is completed. The FAA is very strict on using non-PMA’d parts in certified aircraft. Contact your local avionics shop or AP for these requirements.
  2. If your faceplate needs painting, remove it from the radio. Otherwise, go to #8.
  3. Tape the back from any paint over spray. Do not tape the inside area as this has to be painted. Remove the original King logo on the bottom right, save for later.
  4. Fill any dents with a plastic filler or similar material.
  5. Lightly sand with a fine grit sandpaper for good paint adhesion.
  6. Paint the faceplate with a quality paint such as Krylon's® 1613 Semi-Flat Black paint. If you want a silver border around the outer rim use a Testors' silver paint stick. They are found in most hobby stores.
  7. Remove the protective tape.
  8. Remove the old decal. This will let the light for the text to show through the new insert.
  9. Remove the double face tape backing from the new insert.
  10. Place the new inserts onto faceplate. Reinstall faceplate, knobs and the original King logo with a strong glue onto the radio.
  11. Tell all your aircraft buddies about Aircraft Engravers
