Quoted from cfh:Yes it is do-able, i have done it. is it cheap? no. you need a projector to start, and there's way more needed/involved than just that. But you can't go down this road without the (discontinued) projector. are there other projectors that will work? yes, but it's not a drop-in proposal. you have to make new metal mounting brackets (not that the brackets from Stern for the original projector are even available.) And then after that, there's a TON of other stuff you have to do. it's complicated, and it's expensive. You will spend probably $1000 doing this, and perhaps as much as $2000. Is there a cheaper way? maybe. but if you want a factory version, you will need to spend money, a lot of money. Really the better way is to just buy a premium...
Chinese dlp projector:$200, 3d printed mount:$5, power supply $15, hdmi cable:$5, white projector material:$50.
Seems cheap to me, what am I missing?
