+Rep. Do I really need to say why?
batteries are in just havent posted that. left is to mod out the front panel. cut a design in it and wire up 2 diffrent led lighting systems based on weather its on ac or dc power. essentually im hoping just to tap into the existing circuts on the pcb that runs the led's and buttons for the front panel for this. other then that order the correct cathode tubes online and install them. that should be about it. if it wasnt for the xmas holliday i would be able to give you a realistic time line but shipping is probably retarded right now. this mod hasnt taken me very long wich im happy about.
thanks for the reps guys. glad your all likeing this so far. will need to make some measurements and print off a template at work on monday moring. that will most likely be my next update, but who knows maybe i will get some drunken inspiration at the bar tonight
Good work man! +rep
weeee im full of rum like a good bf2 pireats mod player should be (see the gameing thread) ya shameless plug but .. whatcha gonna do... i plan to make measurements and a template for monday and maybe i get some cutouts done on the front panel and we will see how she looks. really love the fact that so many great TBCS modders are checking this project out even though its not super hard core like TGS namesake is.
+rep cause UPS's need lovin too...:rolleyes:
Looks really good so far...

and here it is more complete. and the tool i used to get rid of it all. not sure if thats what this bit was designed for but either way it seemd to do a good job of it
and here is what it looks like from the front. ya i know its still ugly but its not done yet either.
I like it. Nice to see what I was helping with. +rep (when I can)
hmm having some issues with the pre existing paint on that front panel... guess i will sand it down and try again. thats what i get for getting ahead of myself i guess. better planning = not having to redo stuff.
