Has anyone tried fitting the carbon fiber overhead to the green cabin vs the pink that it was molded for? I don't know if there is any difference between the pink and green?

I don't have any empirical data, but based upon conversation with Geoff
Combs who has a green cabin cover and has seen my pink cabin cover there
shouldn't be any difference in fit. The basic differences are in quality of
finish. You may have more work filling and sanding with the green version.
I would give Geoff a call directly. (614) 834-8659

When I spoke with Geoff last he mentioned the mold was built around the pink cabin and wasn't sure the differences between pink and green covers. You are probably right, the differences are probably minor and can be filled or corrected. Now just deciding whether I want the overhead or go with something else just for pilot/copilot lighting. I'm trying to justify the idea of lighting, air front/back with overhead.

I have the old AA OH console which I promise you was heavier and
MUCH more difficult to fit regardless of the type of canopy one has. I
personally believe the OH console is one of the best additions to an RV-10
build for COMFORT, lighting & location to hide wires, O2 etc...

Dave the only area that might fit a little different would be the step in
the canopy right at the rear of the back doors. That being said I
Do not think you would have any problems fitting it to the green canopies.
