Fred,
I have seen some elegant alterations to the fuel selector but most include
changing to the Andair fuel tap sunk into the top of the tunnel (see Ira's
response).
I have decided that as a cheap, safe and quick option to continue to use the
factory tap with a large homemade, laminated label showing the position of
the fuel tap settings, taped to the top of the tunnel. This way I only have
to check that the pointer feels in the right position as shown on the label
and all is well.
My inspector was most happy and it saved me more modifications which stop me
flying.

PS Andair are a company local to me in the UK. Their quality is excellent
and I would not hesitate to fit their wares. (I nearly purchased the tap
last year). However I endorse David Joyce's view and given that I rarely
change tanks, keeping the reserve filter clean at all times, I believe the
factory fit works well.
