Then you have easy disconnect to remove cp when needed.

This is exactly what I needed to see.  I probably have a couple of these laying around somewhere too.  Just hope I have one with 14-16 wires.  This seems perfect - I need an easy way to separate the CP from the cabinet in case I need to do some maintenance.

Yes there 20pin. I also carry the 12v supply to the button lights down the same connector so the whole cp can just plug in and out..

Great idea.  My 18" HDMI cable just arrived so I'm going to try and finish the wiring today or tomorrow.  Should be fairly easy... famous last words.

I still have a ways to go.  The bookcase is almost finished but I still need to do all the trim in the room (crown and baseboard), add some lapboard backing between the bookcase where the bed will go and cut and add tops for the cabinets that go to the wall and give the entire thing a little more weight as well as complete the "built-in" look.  I'm going to cope the crown and I have no idea how to do that yet.  Oh yeah, I also have to pain this mofo - not looking forward to that.  This was a big project for me and really out of my skill set but whatever - nail guns are fun so why not.   ;D

The plan is to finish up the bartop in September once the kids are back in school and this bedroom renovation is complete.
