I must be brain dead. Can anyone tell me how to make a bezzel for g1000 nxi for a Bonanza g36 or any other aircraft for that matter.

Just use the "Generic - Garmin G1000 NXi Overlay" to download freely from the Online Store in Air Manager ;-)

Thanks very much. Got the bezzel for the PFD but when I follow the instructions for the MFD nothing happens? I can't find a "save" or "apply" button. Any suggestions.

What do you want to apply and save?

Hi @Taxman1843, I guess what's @Ralph has suspected, is that you wondering how is acting the switching between PFD and MFD, indeed there's no need to perform a "Save" anywhere, we have just to select either PFD or MFD and its' automatically memorized, we have just to restart the instrument from the [Create/Edit] tab. So in order to use both PFD and MFD at the same time, we have to add this instrument twice in a panel on the [Home] tab, move the last added instrument to the side in the layout, then only after selecting the second one in the left pane, have to select MFD, eventually run the panel, that's it !

Thanks again for all of the help. I finally have both the G1000 nxi PFD and FD installed and functioning. Still working on adding steam gages for airspeed indicator, attitude indicator, altitude indicator, trim indicator, and flap indicator for Bonanza G36. I do not see either Bonanza specific instruments or generic instruments in Air Manager's instruments.

Not necessarily, however other generic, or designed for other aircraft, would fit properly, just a matter of try and select

There are generic instruments that will work just fine. There's also a customizable airspeed indicator for which you can set the various ranges via user properties (like setting the G1000 to MFD).

If you want a switch panel and fuel selector, you can look here:

Thank you, I am now trying different instruments to see if they are compatible. I did go to the link you provided but I did not see a fuel selector.

We can enter word to filter on, in the search field in Air Manager. Here I've tried with the AM Beta version
The "Beechcraft B58 - Fuelselector" from Martin Halm, seems to work properly, even if it's build initially on two in wings tanks selector, with cross-feed
