Yeah it's a top case. Here are some pics of the "during" part. If you wondered where I stuffed all of that Aquacomputer gear then wonder no more.

By the end it looked like this

And was so tightly stuffed that I had to buy a dental mirror to connect everything up at the end.

(true story). Here I am about 70% through the management on the other side.

And of course the rig lit in another colour.

I will be totally honest here, and absolutely no BS, it took me a week to do the wiring. Not only did I have to wire everything, but I also removed every single cable from every single component (the roof motor, lights, etc) and wrapped it in cloth tape. IE all of the stuff that plugs into this.

That took a huge chunk of time up. It was well worth it, though.

Not hooked up the RGB as it needs an adapter.
