Got up early to mount the TV and paint the cab..... here´s how it went down:

First was to disassemble the TV. 20"


Marked up on a piece of 22mm plywood (for strength!)


Frame assembled


TV installed


Waiting to go in the cab!


Must admit, it very easy to work on a cab when you have a table like this:




Whooops! - to fast with the list´s that hold´s the back door, so had to cut some of it away...


TV markup...


from the other side..


And yes! - Fits like a glove!


Oh, hehe - nice paintjob!

I'm a fan of that TV too  ;) So "70's design" in the shape  :-*

what does 'REWLS'  means by the way?  ::)

Are you fine now with all the sizes?

Dawn! this project seems to be so quick... Impressive [Vader voice=on]  8)

REWLS was a word me and my danish friends invented, it means Rules (with a western accent!)

once again, i need help.. :-[ :-[
I visited my friend at the iron works, but he was unable to bend a piece of steel that accurate  :'( :'( :'(
so my only option is to get it bend, but not the way it should, or, someone set a CP for sale.....
please, if anybody sees or hears anything, please let me know.
