hey guys, where will i get a CM-690 transparent side panel? Is there any one in mumbai who will get the job done on my existing side panel?
 
nope..i dint. my other computer has a transparent panel..which i did the job. i dont wanna risk the CM690 side panel
 
it's very simple.

Cut required size window in the side panel . Get little bigger size of 5mm or 2mm thick acrilick sheet and glue it using "Araldite", leave it for 8hours and there you go.

For cutting window you can contact any motor repair shop, they will charge about Rs 50/- for the job.

if you want to add two 120mm fans then, cut circle of 120mm diameter in the acrylic sheet .

You can draw two 120mm circles for desiger position and can get it cut from any Photo fram making shop using "JigSaw".

Make hole for fan and use fan grill will LED or normal 120mm Fan.

First draw 120mm circles on the Acrylic sheet, Now place fan over the circle in the position you want to fix it.

Make the fan screw's holes maked by running a pencile inside the screw hiles.

Now go the Jigsaw cutting shop and tell the guy to cut the circle and drill fours 3mm holes over the screw holes marks.

Go to local hardware shop, get 4, 2mm thick machine screws and nuts set.

Get 120mm fan grill and fan.

Place the grill outside and fan inside of the acrylic sheet and use machine screws to attach them together..

There you go ||||:):D

i did the same thing dude, all i need is a professional touch.

Try this:

Plot the required cut-out on the panel. Ensure that you have sufficient space to stick an acrylic panel. Have it cut from an engineering workshop using an abrasive cutting wheel. Use a grinder to grind the sharp edges - you could do this yourself with a low-grade sand paper.

Once this's done, have the panel powder coated with the required color. Most paint shops will do this for less than 200 bucks or even cheaper.

Stick the acrylic panel using a double-sided 3M tape. Get this tape from KMD.

Looks a lot professional. I had done this to the CM690 I had before.
