Restoring a Gyruss that's missing the blackout bezel for the monitor (and the graphic bezel that sits behind the glass, but that one is self explanatory :) ).

How does the blackout bezel fit around the monitor? It looks like it probably is angled back somehow like the old Sega/Gremlin bezels (Carnival, Frogger) but it's tough to make out without any reference. Is there also a piece that blocks the marquee light from the monitor? Planning to just buy some oversized black posterboard to cut out a replacement. Thanks!
 
Im getting ready to redo mine. Its all warped and such. It has a few folds to it and it not only covers the marquee light on the top, but it also has "cups" that cover the speakers as well.
I was going to use mine for a template and take some measurements off of it for reference. I would hope that gamestencils.com will be repro-ing these like they did the T&F bezels.
 
I should have the Dimensions from another KLOVer for the Blackout shroud. I used them to make one for my game turned out great. Shoot me a PM and I will try to find them tonight.
 
Was that the measurements that I sent to you a while back? I'm glad to hear they turned out good for you! :)

If you can't find the file, then perhaps I can find the copy I sent to you and post it. Just let me know if you still need them.
 
thebman sent the dimensions over, hoping to get some time this week to assemble a new shroud. Thanks guys.
 
I am attaching the document. The document is an Excel file, but if someone wants to convert it to a more portable format, then I'm sure everyone would appreciate that. :D

Thanks!

VERY big thanks to Rommager and thebman80! The measurements you sent brought a DOA, no bezel art Gyruss back to its former glory. :)
 
Thanks Thebman!!
I do have one question - what is the piece on the bottom and how does it attach? Mine only seems to have the main/top piece.
Thanks!

Good question -- pretty sure it just sits between the speaker cups to complete the screen enclosure. Thebman? Rommager? I haven't added it yet since the bezel does a good job of covering that bottom area.
 
Um... not sure would have to take the plexi bezel off the game to see was just playing the game to. Good news is I finally beat my top score but still haven't cracked the 200,000 barrier yet.
 
Again, sorry for the delayed response - my e-mail notifications aren't working for some stupid reason... Need to look into that...

Yea, the part on the bottom just basically frames the bottom of the monitor - that's about it. I'm not at my machine at the moment, but as I recall, it just basically hides the mounting hardware of the monitor.
 
Gyruss Blackout Shroud "PDF Version"

I converted the Excel file into CAD and printed a full scale mylar template yesterday. I picked up the poster board and installed it last night. It came out awesome,thanks for posting the dimensions. I have attached the PDF version as well.

Thanks,
