Talking Enclosure made for my 8.4" DennisK touch kit. PICS

I made this enclosure with s radio shack project box. $19.99

I had the front laser cut. What do you people think?

You can see the power led here.

I messed the ports up a little. OOps.

You can see the touch led here.

This is whee I placed the OSD buttons.

It's going in the center here. The Prelude dash is the best!

I forgot to add some info:

The enclosure was white. I sprayed it with Flat black vinyl paint.

It was laser cut by my friend father for free. I would have killed it with my dremal.

The border shows on the bottom and sides so I can use the touch screen more efficiently. When I'm driving I don't want to try to hit the edge 50x's to get tash bar up and crash.

And it's going right here:

Too bad you couldnt have him laser cut the vga and serial plug openings Very slick looking, makes me dread building my own enclosure even more .

Where'd you get it laser cut? I don't live in NY. I live in some hick town in PA, but I am hoping you will reply with some big name like Home Depot?

I got the laser cutting done from my friends father for free.

I know I should have had him cut the serials too but I didn;t want to ask for too much.

Since that picture above I have shaved more of the plastic off from the side to make a nice rectangular serial cutout.

Now too solve my only problem, my CMedia chipset for sound is crying for help!
