Does it fit in a floppy bay cover? |
|
| Evil & Corrupted
minds plan the deed
Most floppy covers measure 1" x 4" |
 |
| A sub-mini micro switch from Radio Shack |  |
| A small green LED
already setup for 12 volt applications.
No bezel required, it just bolts in, and it looks clean. |
 |
| Floppy Bay Drilled Here is a template make sure your image program states it's size as 480 x 120. |
 |
| That 1/2 drill press was a good investment. |
 |
| Soldering stereo wire onto the switches. |
 |
| Some of the tools used are strippers, small needle nose pliers, soldering iron, 'third-hand', a small jewelers vise. |
 |
| The bay is packed so tight, the LED's have to go in first |
 |
| Switches are bolted in like normal, but are locked in place with some super glue gel. |
 |
| This is wired directly to the 12 volt supply (red & black wires), not to the existing switch found on most lighting systems. |
this switch and it's wires get cut off, then wired shut with a small butt connecter or twist and heat shrink. |
| It's a good looking mod. |
