I think you have to use a dremel to make your own cut outs.

Myself, I elected to cut the top and place a plate to hold the units. I used 2X19" Dell widescreen monitors and an older IBM 15" standard LCD monitor.

Hi,
I' always study for simworls and glareshieds. I saw the modl of simworld but i like very much the fds glare. In your post you talked about a sim builder who have connecting both. Could you remember where was these pics/topic ?
Best regrards,

Re: My Simworld MIP Panel Full Kit (Advanced) Arrived.
Just wondering if everyone that has the prosimparts overhead panel are building their own frame for it, or is there a panel frame you recommend?
Re: My Simworld MIP Panel Full Kit (Advanced) Arrived.
Filip from simworld has sent me some pictures of their aluminium stand.
Looks like they nearly have a complete package at a very competitive price!
The only big advantage I can think of with FDS and flyengravity is their integrated back lighting, or internal back lighting within the MIP itself.
How have you guys decided to backlight your panels?
Re: My Simworld MIP Panel Full Kit (Advanced) Arrived.
Could you send me these pictures because I am studying the construction of the mine.

I built my own frame for my ProSimParts overhead.

I'd love to get a metal frame for it but it's a $500+ gamble to whether the panels will properly line up on the rail holes.

Not too sure about ProsimParts but I believe the simworld OVH fit the FDS frames nicely. Home cockpit 737 update - YouTube

Hi Gufau, I sent you the pics, lets continue our conversation here for the benefit of everyone.
I have asked simparts.de and they are unsure if their panels work with the simworld MIP -- hopefully all you need to do is drill holes for the correct fitting.
As for the CDU-bay, yes -- others have managed to fit a screen in place, you just have to flip it vertically, but there will be a little section sticking out.
I went on Red 5 Aviation flight simulator today -- VERY professional.
Here are some pictures -- https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...1&l=981c65ebd3

Re: My Simworld MIP Panel Full Kit (Advanced) Arrived.
Thank's OmniAtlas, it looks very good. He did not even put anything on the site ...
For Simparts, I hope it will, it's very good material, with backlight bulbs as in the true. Now the problem is that not Simworld 1x1 standards and when you want to install third-party components that are standards, there are concerns.
This is the problem to install a "cdu bay" because there is not enough space between the two "lower frame". So yes, we must move from the place reserved for cdu 2 and EICAS.

I think FDS is the only vendor which uses backlight bulbs? I know flyengravity are using LED lights. Regardless, please let us know how your project goes -- simparts panels with simworld MIP; I'll be going down this route as well if it works effectively. Cheers.
