Modifying a jungle green N64 with el wire.
tƎsting the el panel to make 5urƎ it works. Popped the logo plastiƆ piece off (just stuck 0n with a bit of adhesive) and removed about 1/4' of plastic with a dremel ᗺƎhind it. This way el panel can sit flush against it. Tacked back in with a bit of hot glue.
