Title: WTB: 25" arcade monitor bezel (can't find them anywhere online)
Post by: DaddyLongLegs on November 16, 2016, 10:40:53 am
Hello! I need a 25" bezel for my TMNT arcade restoration. Apparently these are the dimensions:

Supposedly they are identical for TMNT 1, The Simpsons, and the 1 screen XMen game. I can't find this thing anywhere; not even eBay, so if someone has one to sell, please let me know! Thank you!

NOS bezel for 25" monitor ( http://www.arcadeadventures.com/25-monitor-bezel-nos/ (http://www.arcadeadventures.com/25-monitor-bezel-nos/) )

IF you don't mind used there is the arcade boneyard ( http://thearcadeboneyard.com/monitor_bezels/plastic_monitor_bezels.php (http://thearcadeboneyard.com/monitor_bezels/plastic_monitor_bezels.php) )

Or you could always build one yourself :

Hmm, yeah that is harder to find then I would think it would be. Anyway, my driving cabs had 25" monitors in them, I still have the bezels... I can check the dimensions of the screen area when I get home if you want. You would definitely have to cut it down though because I believe the outside width is around 28.5...

let me know.

Thanks for looking out. I saw the first link but unfortunately the measurements aren't correct.

The second link seems to be all for Sammy monitors (mine is a WG).
Again I appreciate the help regardless!

I don't mind cutting at all! As long as the "inner" opening matches properly (I wouldn't want any of the frame of the monitor showing, nor would I want any of the screen to be blocked).

Thanks and let me know!

Okay so mine might be too small maybe? Here are the dimensions.

Outside 21.25 High x 28.25 wide

Inside 15.25 High x 20.25 wide...

Yeah unfortunately too small, especially on the outside, would be a problem as it would look bad. Unless there is something I can put over it along with the bezel? Like one of those cardboard things that has a square in the center, where they would put all the moves for the characters on? A border I guess it would be called? That would hide that, but I have no idea where to get one of those that would fit. I would just buy poster board and cut it but there's no way I would cut straight lines in the center part so it would come out bad.
