[QUOTE="mpad, post: 210405, member: 4070"] Hi, don't know about the void, because I made my cab fit like a glove to the screen. But you want the display as close to the lockdown bar as possible. Actually my lockdown bar is securing the edge of the TV. Maybe you want sth in the middle. You can use the space in the back for flashers etc. As for the angle I mounted the TV like the playfield, so 6 degrees. But I put in on side rails which are fixed in one point at the front and have a long hole at the back, so angle is adjustable ;) I also raised it pretty close to the glass, because in my logic this is the only way a display can create depth. You always look inside, the picture doesn't stick out, right? Lot of people have it where the playfield would be, though. This creates the virtual image to be even further down - in my logic [emoji6] Best thing is that you make a mockup first. Lay it on the table, put some books at one end to create an angle, and see for yourself (run software from laptop for testing). Build the cab how you like it. [/QUOTE]
