It wouldn't take much effort to sketch up your own plan once you've found your display. Designing your cab around the display you're going to use is the best way to go about this. (We've all seen those cabs with the tiny monitor in a huge cab--evidence that the builder either used someone else's design without modifcation, or let the control panel dictate the cab size.)

I think that is the frontend on the Jakks TV games. They are using one of those cheap little 5-in-1 games on a TV, not a computer.

Yeah, that's a Timewarp cabinet with a Jakks 5-in-1 inside.

For the price difference it's better to either build one yourself or buy an empty shell from Tahnok100. I believe he has one on Ebay right now.
