Using smoked plexiglas - Hey RandyT!
Dr. J:
That's cool. Can you show us a pic of the smoked glass with the room lights on. Does it look tinted? 8)
PoDunkMoFo:
My Star Wars Cockpit has 1/4" thick glass. Very brown looking and it works great. Of course it's a vector game, don't know if that makes a dif.
Carsten Carlos:
Thanx, Oscar, that pictures did really help! (as usual :D)
I found something similar at the local hardwareshop - but made of rubber. If it should work, I'll post it here!

Hey all,
Just wanted to say that I picked up some 1/8" smoke/tinted plexi (31 beans cut to size - from a local glass store/company)...
it really made a huge difference in the over all look and presentation of my cab... it hides the bezel and monitor mounts etc beautifully... and it does make the vertical games look a little better on my horizontal 21" PC monitor
thanks to oscar and randyT for pointing out this technique.
I took some digital pics but not sure if they're really good representations cuz i'm lousy w/my camera.. *shrug*
Is there arny tips for adjusting brightness/contrast and colors for maximum effect? Bueller?
