My Big Ben

[youngeratheart2007]

Thanks to Tiko, I'm finally the proud owner of a fully working Big Ben.
Needed work, But my repair guy is the man!
There was another on/off button on this box, done by a previous owner. A fun button?
Anyway,
We took it of, so now i've got a little hole above the left speaker
What should I do, any ideas, Big Ben stickers?
Let me know

is that big white center panel holding everything in place --
a molded hunk of nylon or delrin ??

if so --- VERY impressive

Wicked! Well done!

Congrats on getting her up and running!

Isn't a boombox without a working tapedeck like 40% of a full one??

to fill that small hole i would put something like a plastic ribbet,

even kinda rubbery, of a gray to dark color.

i would not use leds or stickers ,

i think.

wow that looks awesome,,, the important thing is to see it working 100% the hole you could probably use some plastic filler

Yup. Nylon, and very common with Sanyo including the M-X920.

The hole: Go to your local Lowes and to go the hardware section. You will find plastic hole plugs that snaps right in place. If you paint it silver first, it will look right at home. Otherwise, install a 1/4" jack headphone style jack and connect to your line-in jacks internally so you have a new front mounted line-in connection and it would look right at home.
