just drill a hole threw the panel and use a gromet. If you have to cut the wires put them on a plug so you can remove it with the whole panel if needed.

If you can move the microedge all the way to the left side and cut out a section for the wires. Very nice set up though.

Agreed. You can make the hole very small that way almost unnoticeable.

I think some little speakers from Walmart with a IPOD usb port will do good.

Beer, how/where do you do the letters/words on the panel? I hunted forever trying to find a vinyl shop who could print letters small enough...

Rowmark is the manufacture, I use textured mostly but some peeps like smooth. Google Rowmark and you can see who distributes near you. Most sign shops or laser engraver shops (Trophy shops) can get it for you. I recommend using 1/8" vice 1/16" as the thinner material is flimsy.
