To make this work, I needed to hide the fact that there is a camera and a microphone built into the door, so I drilled a 1" hole in the door, and stopped 1/4" from the front, knocking out the piece. Then, using a sander dremel tool, I flattened the wood so there was still just the peephole size opening on the outside. Using the old peephole with the lens removed, I added a glass protective lens and then embedded the camera behind it, leaving just this appearance (see photo) in front.



I routed the cable thru the door and will post pictures of the finished product some time in the future.
