Has anyone used a DMD extender on an Independence Day? If so, can you please share the color palette you used?

If not, I'm looking for color suggestions.

Looks like I will need to modify the speaker panel slightly to make the LCD fit, but can be done.

Has anyone installed the DMD extender / LCD into a Congo?

I have mine ready to go. Went with a lot of green and it looks very good...

Only thing is - there is a 2 inch thick housing on the back of the backglass containing the lights. So, it hits the top inch of the lcd, can't get it into the backbox.

Trying to figure out the best way to modify it to get it to fit, without causing too much damage.

Any ideas? I'm not counting on RGB LED solutions.

Quoted from Crash:

Is there room to move the LCD down behind the plastic channel the speaker panel fits in? I think others have done WPC-95 lightbox games without issues.

No room. Even if you sit the lcd on the bottom of the back box, it still sits too high, about an inch.

Hoping someone can post a pic of how they did it.
