Shuttle DVD-Rom Stealth Mod

[par]

can i get some linkage? I tried the sudihari(sp) forums but couldn't find a working link to pics or instructions on stealthing my dvd.

dvd rom is stealthed, not as pretty as some, but damn good for 30 minutes of labor, i needed a dremel or some real fine sandpaper for it to be real pimp, oh well... it'll have to wait

Here, I found it... THIS is how I did mine

 

[par]

that's basically how i did mine, but i didn't remove the dvd-rom's bezel.. too much work

just put dvdrom back on the 3rd screw-set and cushion taped the trimmed shuttle bezel to the tray and put a 1 sided sticky on the eject button.. looks good and works well, but if you look at it closely you can see the metal needs sanding..

so it isn't exactly flush, needs to go back 1/16 of an inch, and i'll look at that issue tonight.

don't know what i can do other than make more drill holes in the drive tray, but i don't have a drill.. so it may just have to do..

**edit:

oh yeah, mine's just as flush as his, with not a third of the effort
