The cathodes installed in the case
Everything in the case, I was so happy when I saw everything fitted in.
My plexi-glass after some rough cutting

some more working
Piercing the ventilation holes
Made holes in the original buttons to make the power on and leds fit
Again just some polishing up, made this little part from the original wheel
Finally, the end result

Re: 1st mod - 40's style radio
Awesome!
I would have to guess it'd sell for around $150. Depending on the mods, (from my observation) they don't make much profit and usually sell for around whatever the hardware is worth on the second hand market. Then again, you never know on ebay... with one of a kit items, it only takes two people that really want it.
PS: I'd probably put some more holes down below, maybe even another fan? What kinda temps are you getting at idle?

looks pretty sweet! might I suggest a tripod for your photos? might clear up the blurriness factor.

I wish the inside of the case looked a bit cleaner (not sure what kind of cable mgmt options are available here), but other then that, looks great!
