    Wow, nice job with the dimmer box! Could you put a little more info for each pic, like what is shown and what you did? I think it would really help out people looking into this like me. Thanks! Great Job!

    Understandable, cool, I may follow in your footsteps. A step by step with labels would be great! Sorry to ask so much ;D

    no problem. I recomend looking at evolved's thread. All the extra work he did on his was amazing, he has all the steps on there and is acctually a better step by step instructional guide the what rapid has on their site. I cant find the folder with alot of pictures I took during the build so there seems to be a big gap in the middle of the process of missed steps
