Title: I need a little help searching for a vga part.............
Post by: mccoy178 on January 24, 2010, 11:30:13 am

On my cabinet, I want to extend the vga port from the motherboard to the wall of the cabinet.

i.e. From the back of my pedestal I want to be able to hook a vga cable into it to run to the t.v. 

I don't know exactly what to search for when "googling".  The ultimate solution would be:
1.  A vga cable attached to a plated vga pass through that I could just make a cutout for on the pedestal.

Any help is appreciated! :cheers:

Nevermind.  Googling:  "vga wall mount"  gave me plenty of solutions. :banghead:  I bet I've spent 30 minutes barking up the wrooooooong tree. :'(
