Good point, and my A&P/IA was the first person I asked...he said I should get a TSO'd altimeter because he didn't want the paperwork hassle of a field approval. I posted the question here to see how much of a hassle it was, thinking if someone has done it before I could do part or most of the paperwork. RF

I would think the issue is not TSO or non-TSO, but rather if the particular part in question is FAA approved (whatever that means) for use in a particular category of aircraft. The person to ask would be the A&P/IA that maintains your aircraft because he or she is the one who will have to sign your aircraft logbook and/or prepare an applicable 337.
