Here's links to the cabinet pics with my homemade control panel:

First of all, this Defender was dead to the world and I didn't kill it. Just an empty cabinet when I got it.
The control panel uses a Keyboard hack, a Mouspinner, and a hacked Gravis Gamepad for its controls. The CRT is a 20" SVGA Trinitron behind the stock Defender bezel. System is running a 600mhz Celeron w/ FireGL 100 pro (Permedia2) Not fancy, but works dandy. Top of control panel is matte finish Lexan with my own design printed on the underside in reverse. T-molding on the front edge. RED, YELLOW and GREEN buttons are ESC, TAB, and ENTER respectively for navigating the front end and settings. The coin slot is functional.
For those looking for some more info on the Mouspinner, check out the link below.
