2.5 hours
I now have the landing light installation pretty much done!
I trimmed and fit the lens according to the instructions, which was not as complicated as it appeared at first. I got an okay fit, but I think I kind of goofed up the very last step, which is trimming the bottom edge. I ended up with a good fit on the outboard side but a bit of a gap on the inboard side. I spent quite a while trying to improve it without much luck, so I decided to just continue and if it bothers me later I'll just make a new lens... Duckworks sells replacement lenses for $15 anyway.

After that, I took the leading edge skin back off and finished installing the light mount.
Next I'll run the wires and pitot/static tubing, and then it'll be finally time to rivet the leading edge on for good!
