Like I said, I'm taking it home, not right now, as now I have to figure out where the hell it can go. Unfortunately, it's at the bar right now being played by no one cause honestly no one likes the game and it took 4 of us to get it upstairs to the 2nd floor. I really don't wanna move it anytime soon, tho if that montior comes out the weight goes down significantly.

Thanks for posting the dimensions.
Have fun with your cab!

A bit of updating and further questions. I know these 2 other questions have most likely been answered in other threads, but I'm trying to save as much money as I can here. I bought a slab of MDF and have measure the size of the control panel. I created a button layout in Microsoft Visio, but is there a better program? Something that would ensure that I have the proper button spacing and size that I could then print out and use as a guide?
The ArcadeVGA card is 90 bucks plus shipping and handling. I found an old GeForce fx5200 that I might be able to use with Soft 15khz. I have an ancient 15" lcd monitor I could hook up so the bios screen goes thru it and the arcade monitor I have can be the primary monitor when windows boots. Is this viable?
And another question. has anyone tried Amazon for their control panel parts? I browsed there just to check and there are a lot of great deals.

Check this out for layouts. You can print them out and affix it to the panel. Drill pilot holes with a drill first, then remove the paper and use a hole saw for the rest.
