The build was a lot less complicated than I had anticipated! Electrical tape for the win. Here's a gallery. I got my drill out and got ready to drill out the back of the Silverstone logo for the IR port since the panel already had a hole in the aluminum. I was surprised to find that the logo...

The case came today! It looks like there's a circle cut out of the front aluminum panel right behind the logo. Not sure what the logo is made out of but light will not shine thru it at all. If I were to put the IR sensor behind this hole does anyone have any good ideas of what to replace the...

Thanks for the quick responses, WiSK. I should start getting parts in the mail in about 2 days. Looking at the dimensions and the size of the wires, I may have to make/buy some extensions to get it to reach. I'll post some photos of the build once it starts to take shape.
