    I ran the cable through



    And there's that



    I decided to not use the temp gauge on the front and mount a small photo frame that will scroll through 200 or so Mopar images





    It'll go right there



    I'll need to construct a frame for it.



    I'll cut it soon

    Here's how the radio came to me



    I cut out the mopar logo



    And added a coat of flat black



    And I remembered that my brother-in-law watches TV and movies on his aging laptop, so I removed one of the DVD drives and added a Blu-Ray ROM. The Radeon HD 4830 has a DVI to HDMI adapter so with the use of a quality monitor he can watch the latest and greatest in Hi-Def

    I've thought about this for a while and decided to start signing my mods. They are, in fact an art form, so it makes sense to sign them.

    This is on the inside left panel



    I mixed up some Loctite and smeared it on the Mopar logo



    Then pressed it on the back panel

    Yeah, Satan made it, then . . . . . . I don't remember.

    Anyway,

    I used Loctite again to secure the frame to the bezel I cut out. A little pressure is enough to ensure that it dries smoothly



    I was about to add the PSU, but the screws I have are silver



    So, I painted them to match



    Once I get the system in, I'll be installing Vista Ultimate 64 bit

    And the LCD bay

    So after a few days of thinking I'm not sure what I want to do with the front bays. I still have the frame, but I kind of like adding a media reader/fan controller instead





    Here's with the fan controller. It's the same one I used with Project Namesake



    And here's with the LCD frame



    I've put in most of the components so far



    Here's a look with the panel on, minus the video card

    The LCD display is garbage. When I turned on the computer it blinked and beeped again and again. Even the numbers were rubbish. Since I do like the idea of having a card reader and additional USB ports on the front panel I decided to gut it. I then merged the frame to the LCD cover



    This is how it looks



    While I wait for the silicon to dry I installed Vista Ultimate

    Here it is mounted



    And then while the computer is on playing the photos



    So here's some pics with the lights off. All you can see is the Coolermaster V8lights



    And more





    I loaded about a hundred photos of Mopar/Dodge and set the screensaver to play them

    Awesome! For the startup sound, you should use a big Hemi V8 start and rev!
