Just thought id post these pics here since the original kapsreiter for sale thread is closed. Finally installed one of his stainless back board panels with add on LED lighting. Took forever to get the LE paper from China as every time it arrived it was damaged. Thought it came up pretty good. Pity the blues aren't matching on the speakers/LE paper.

Quoted from MustangPaul:

I see you screwed yours on, I had to use a ton of double sided foam tape to get mine to stay on, it just didn't want to stay stuck on the game speaker panel.

Yeh, was going to tape, but then I thought what if the EL paper needs to be fixed/replaced. So I used Velcro, then screws to secure- so the whole thing can be removed. I actually like the look of the screws. I figured no one would want to go back to the original backboard, so drilling wasn't a problem. You could alwys go back to the original decal and it would go directly over the holes anyway.

Was more complicated than I thought it would be, only because of the EL part.

Quoted from Zora:

I always try to keep the possibility to return to the original status without visable changes like screws and holes. Therefore I used small power magnets for my Panel. Just fix them in the backside of the panel und you can "click" the panel on the backbox. To prevent the Panel from moving downwards, I Secured it with a small plastic from the inside. Not sure if necessary when you use enough magnets.

Yeh, also considered the magnets, but also wanted it to be more permanent/look stock. I move the game around a bit, so didn't want to have to worry about the panel falling off. Also had the issue of the EL paper wire meaning the panel would sit exactly flush. Had to allow for a gap between the panel and the back box. I figure it looks good enough no one will want to remove it in future. Ive also got a replacement speaker decal which is a really thick material. If 100% necessary, it will sit over the top of the holes and wont show at all.
