So I have a hollow arcade cabinet (pictured below) and am planning to mount a monitor in it (obviously). I am thinking I will be going will an LCD monitor. The monitor that originally went in this was a 27" CRT. It is an old "Wrestlefest" cabinet according to the stickers on the back from the manufacturer. What sized LCD would I want to go with? And how would I go about mounting a monitor, especially if it's not the same size? |

Add a board in there. Some people screw the LCD to the board, some people like me add a small cheap wall mount. Your call. Size wise you'd have to measure the width you have and then go to your local electronics store and find something that fits. |
