Question about measuring for the monitor bezel
« on: October 12, 2010, 09:28:22 pm »
I'm planing on ordering this: http://www.gameongrafix.com/products/arcade-classics-red-bezel

I'm noting my measurements and saved them in the doc which is provided on the website.  Do I measure to the "viewable" area of the monitor, or to the black trim along the outer edges?

Or should I get something like this:

The 25" monitor bezel, trim to fit, then measure for the sticker bezel?

If you have a CRT I'd go with option #2.

Yes, crt.  I ordered a 25" crt bezel.
