Not bad looking, I like the stealthing you did. I myself have to do some stealthing on all my components too I think. Considering I am putting about $2500 into my system I can't afford for anything to be stolen.. Oh well just more work to do in the end....

wow, that's more than your car is worth

You are correct, but the system I am building will go into the '66 Mustang Fastback I will be restoring this summer...so I think it will all work just nicely together.

Ok, here are some more pics,

I find windows to be quite legible using an ATI Rage's tv-out with a TFT monitor.
