What a job! I see there are lots of other stuff around there.

The wiring is all hidden, so I can hook up the laptop just by plugging the HDMI cable into a jack in the Westy's cabinetry. And I made an easier way to secure and protect the display when traveling. I added those details and photos to the project page, starting here: https://sbw.org/westydisplay/#h014e18e3 What a fun project! I hit a few bumps, but some friends helped me stick to it and finish it up. (Well, there's a long list of stuff still to do at the end of the page.) Oh, and while this was going on, I had the rear CV joints replaced! It has been an interesting couple of months.
