Measure!....... Here is how I made mine. Got this 1/4 in. thick art board (black) from A craft store. Cut a square out of it the size of my display. Cut the next one out A half inch all around larger rectangle. Did this 5 times. The edges (that you will be looking at) looked like shit (the ones I cut). So I put black electric tape over all the edges. Hot glued all the panels toughter and it gives A nice 3d effect. You could still see the white on the display, So I covered the edges around that with black tape. Diden't want to trash the display by painting it. Then I spray painted the hole deal. What A pain in the ass. Got a peace of plexyglass painted it to the smaller hole. Glued the glass to the bezal. Wala 10 hours later and 12 beers Finished. I know this isn't what your asking but it seems your brain locked. Go to bed wake up and it will all work out...... Later Jim
