LED Backlight for LCD

I wish i had took some...but its now all set up in my car and i custom fabbed the screen case (i stuffed a flip down monitor into a standard screan bezel) and i really DO NOT want to take it apart

Yeah it worked out really well and didnt cost me an extra dime! Im actually quite impressed in how it came out.

Can you please make a rough drawing on how you placed the two ccfls on the screen. Nothing fancy, just a hand drawing.

Sure ill try and get it done today....

Quick question....the light guide is the main plastic (i think its plastic) piece that the CCFL wraps around right?

yup, that's the light guide...

so it won't be "the plastic thingy"

**Sidewalksalvage** · 06-23-2006, 10:43 AM

**lazy_g** · 06-23-2006, 11:33 AM

Didn't read the thread yet...sorry, but I was short on time when I wrote the replies. Sorry if I came off a bit antagonistic...work has been stressful and I can be a bit short sometimes.

I'll take a look at your thread in a few...
