happ bezel question
« on: June 14, 2004, 03:24:24 pm »
I have a 19 inch tv ill be using for my arcade, i was going to use a 27 inch but i won this for free.  Will a happ controls bezel (19 inch) fit around a 19 inch tv, or are arcade monitors and tvs different in size?

It's my understanding they are the same. However, the TV will have its own built-in bezel to contend with. You'll likely have to remove it from the case.

Anyone else know that has done this, or just knows the answer period?

I used a 27" bezel w/ a 27" TV.  It fit just fine.  I even left the TV bezel on.  There is a very tiny gap between the happ bezel and the tv but I don't mind because I think it is difficult to notice.  I did not really want to remove the TV Bezel.  If you remove the TV bezel, it should fit even better.  

Picture of the bezel and gap:

Just so you know, the shipping for the Happ bezel is rather expensive.

When I got my 19" happ bezel I put it up to my 19" TV  (wasn't using tv, just checking it out).  Seems like a perfect fit but only if you were to remove the TV bezel/case...probably depends a little bit on the tv.

my 25" happ bezel fits my 25" tv a treat without removing case.......... just a pity that for the cab the tv is 24" - bugger, just cut it and 'amended' it - with smoked glass you cant see it!

oh dear - not rain again......Scottish weather is crap, oh well - at least Mame can keep me company.

How much is shipping? In the $10-$15 range?
