	I actually have instructions on how to do it. I found them on a
website somewhere or other and thought it was a cool idea, but I've never
had the time or tools to try it. I can forward it to you if you like. It's
actually instructions for doing it with a PC case, but you should be able
to translate them fairly easily. It includes pinouts and hardware lists.
Let me know if you want it and I'll try to find it. :-)
