Installing The PlexiGlass

Step 10: Installing The PlexiGlass

Before we install this I am assuming that you have already got a sheet of plexiglass cut to the right dimensions of 9"x7 1/2".

1. Flip the cover that we just got done cutting hole in upside down.
2. Measure and mark 9"x7 1/2" and make sure it is centered an even all around
3. Now we need to cut anything out that will prevent use from allow the plexiglass to lay evenly, so with the dremel get to work and cut out anything that sticks up above the surface. NOTE: The 2 screw holes in the middle are no use to us and we can cut them out, but make sure that all 4 corner screw holes are left alone.
4. Sand down all the rough cuts so everything is nice and smooth
5. Test to see if you plexiglass will fit in the area that you cut out for it.
6. Attach the plexiglass to the cover with hot glue around all the edges and anywhere else you can get it without it being visible

lol, no you cannot get "banned" for putting any modification in/on your xbox. They only ban people that use flashed dvd drives. ;-)

actually if you 12 volt your fans they can find out because the fan plug is not being used

Speedmite in reply to momsgonnafindmeNov 3, 2010. 4:45 PM

Wait, so over xbox live they can tell if you CHANGED YOUR FANS?????

DYLEGO in reply to RecklessPwnerJan 29, 2009. 9:52 AM

They do ban you for putting in new fans. Kinda stupid, huh, if that's what gets you RROD?

Speedmite in reply to DYLEGONov 3, 2010. 4:46 PM

whats a flashed dvd drive?

momsgonnafindme in reply to Shut Up NowApr 19, 2009. 8:18 AM

when you flash a dvd drive your taking off the firmware that tells it if its a real xbox game and giving it one that says this can be played

RecklessPwner in reply to Shut Up NowNov 9, 2008. 7:23 AM

thats having your dvd drive flashed to play burned xbox 360 games.

Firebang in reply to RecklessPwnerDec 25, 2008. 10:51 AM

Ah, psh, who does THAT? Not me, heh heh heh.

cornflaker in reply to FirebangJan 13, 2009. 10:14 PM

Can you still play on live if you have a flashed dvd drive? like on the original xboxs they could detect if you had a mod chip and. permanently banned your from connecting to live

ZeroXL91 in reply to cornflakerJun 22, 2010. 9:07 PM

not with the new LT firmware.

ekulmeekul in reply to cornflakerJan 21, 2009. 2:06 AM

You will be able to play for a little while but they will ban you with the next sweep of bans. (they do it in big "waves")

Numb-Nuts in reply to ekulmeekulMay 27, 2009. 5:45 PM

I would love to know how you do this! both the flashing of a drive and the burning of the game disk!

I was wondering if it would be possible to use acrylic instead of plexi? Thanks!

CoryBoyo says: Sep 2, 2009. 3:42 PM

They don't ban you from live for putting 12v fans in because I shorted a fuse and I cannot draw power from the xbox fan plug, so I wired the fans to a 12v transformer about 5 months ago and I play on xbox live no problem :)'

How thick a peice of plexiglass did you use? Just don't want mine to be too big.

keonetics in reply to LzrdManAug 2, 2009. 4:38 PM

believe he said 1/8th of an inch on the 1st step

d1360 says: May 18, 2008. 12:23 AM

does the hole got to be 9"x7 1/2"?????

momsgonnafindme in reply to d1360Apr 19, 2009. 8:20 AM

the hole can be what ever_{that measurement is the recomended plexi size because it fits the entire inside cover nicely}

dmcer in reply to d1360Dec 15, 2008. 8:31 PM

The point is to take what he has done and either copy it because you like it, or take it in another direction.

xirishboyn19x says: Mar 9, 2009. 3:32 PM

does the perspex go underneth or right in the hole meaning it needs to be esactly the same size?
