| Bloody awesome to see it installed! And I got a proof now that special treatment I've given to the plexi works wonders for illumination :]
Cheers bud!
I wonder if the mask could go a bit lower to have the "get away with it" illuminated as well. Darn LEDs in square casings... | |

| Easy peasy...it's just a thin vinyl from underneath. Just don't press too hard so you don't cut into the plexi itself as it might distory the light a bit (not likely)
If you cock up the mask, I'll send you another free of charge in a letter, so the postage will be a quid or something? :] | |

| I don't have a template for M series yet. (assume they're different) If you're up for scanning it and measuring, you'll get 50% off deal from me as a "thank you" | |

| If you'll wait a bit, I'm going to record a video of disassembly on mine for Ken who just enquired as well. It can't be much different (well the screws will be somewhere else) and it will give you a good idea what's involved. | |
