need some recommendations.....

I have bought the Makvision 26" LCD..

According to the instructions...

Note to Install: Cabinet needs to be modified to increase width Dimensions about 1/2" on each side....

Would have been nice to know ahead of time lol

So what tool would be best for this job? I had bought a variable speed oscillating tool ... would this work and what attachment would be best?
 
OK I going with the Dremel Multi-Maxthe modification begins!

I will post images as I go and need a break....

Awesome thanks. I'm realizing that I couldn't so this on my GT Live cab because those bezels are specific to the Fore cabs.

Do you put plexiglass in front of the LcDs?
 
Looks good. Yea the LCD screens are not really drop in on a lot of cabinets. I bought the shelf mount for the Vision Pro 19 inch lcd to try to make mounting it in a neo geo gold easier and it was worthless.

Thats where I used the vision pro in mine. Made a mount for it that allows me to easily remove it and drop the crt in with really ill effects to the cabinet. Guess I got off easy as I'd rather do that than mess with the cabinet.
