Hi,

First off let me say I am new to the modding community (extremly new). I already have read a lot of information to the subject. I saw the idea of the LCD and now want to add one of them to one 5.25 bay.

I was just reading a review and they said http://www.matrixorbital.com/products/g ... -25-sm.htm would fit into a 5.25 bay. Is this true?

I am also looking at http://www.matrixorbital.com/products/blc2021.htm this I bilive already comes with everythign I need to put into a 5.25 bay.

In your guys opion which would be better? Do you have any other you would reccomend? Also I would like the bezzle to match the lian case (pc-65 aluninum). Do I have to take one of the empty 5.25 face plates already on there and do all the cutting myself? Or is there anywhere I can buy one for LCD's?

As I told you I am new to the modding community, so if I have to do the cutting myself, can someone point me to some guides on how to perform this task.

Also Thank you for any information you make give. :smile:

modding the faceplate is easy. I bought a lk202-25 in a pc bay insert. Then I cut off about 1/8 inch around the sides. traced the screen outline, and then cut out the center part. I believe that only a 2x20 display will fit in a single bay. see here:
