Has anyone successfully mounted a 696 into an R44 in the UK?

my understanding is that the CAA rules preclude any kind of permanent fixing (no holes can be drilled) and power must be from the existing supply at the rear two seats. Maintenance organisation has said all evidence of its installation must be completely removed before they will sign off any service on the R44 (helpful).

I'm interested in supplementing an existing 420 unit in the main console with something I can remove to program outside the machine (can take an age to load a plan into a 420).

Love to have something with moving CAA 250 or 500mil maps, but with Flymap L now a non-starter, that seems unlikely.
