Thread: Any problem with....

I used particle board with mine. It's a little heavier than what I wanted(plexiglass for the next one), but small. 5 inches high, 10 inches wide, and 9 inches deep. I have the inverter and power supply mounted in the box inches from the motherboard(without original cases) with NO interference! I can't believe it. I bought the 5" partsexpress color lcd and have it flush nount in the dash of my '99 Cobra. I bought the LCD based on the praise you guys gave it, and am very pleased, thanks. Anyone recommend something other that plex? PS My CPU is a 200mhz AMDk6 and works great.

Got any pictures of the install?

I was thinking of doing the same thing.. Did you mount your MB to something or did you jsut attach it to the wood itself??? also did you run into any problems doing this?? thanks..

Is static electricity much of a problem with plexiglass? There always seems to be alot hanging around the stuff.

Just wondering,

I mounted the motherboard directly on the wood with screws. I didn't really have any problems at all xcept for the LCD backlight not turning on when I started the car, I solved that with a 2 second time delay relay, so now the screen comes on automatically after car is started, when the amp draw from the engine starter is no longer being used. Yes, I do have pictures of the install, just tell me who to send them to for posting. No, I don't know if static would be a problem with plexiglass, but, I could see how it would. I am starting to believe these motherboards aren't as fragile as I had originally thought.
