Default Vafc II custom radio door mount.....

I ran a search on places to mount a Vafc/Vafc II's, and came accross a few threads which showed some laser cut radio doors, with Vafc's installed. Im wondering if anyone on here still does these? Below is a pic of exactly what I would be looking for.

Just curious... but why not make it so you can actually see the screen while its up? Theft reasons?? Or what.

I think you could hide the wiring a little better if you did the screen on the front of the door. Then you could have the door up and see the display . I guess it depends if you are a door up or a door down sort of person.

Does not look too hard. Just get a dremal and trace out the controller. Use a file and fine sand paper to clean up the edges, and there you have it.

Im more of a door open person. I also like the fact that when the door is up you only see the back, and may prevent thieves from stealing it, no flashy looking screen to look at.

Im sure a dremel would do the trick, but I have seen some of the "do it yourself" jobs vs the laser cut, and the laser cut looks so much cleaner.

depends on how good you are and how much time your willing to spend. You can get just as good out of a dremel and a file as laser cut.
