This is my only conversion. I'd love to get it original, but frankly, the family likes it the way it is. I'm just keeping the original components because I can't bear the idea of being the one that makes this process irreversible.
Nice ! I thought the screen looked curved...What color set did you use for the conversion? Did you have to trim the bezel plastic to make it fit? Attached is a pix showing the original 17AP4. Wanna do another?
