I fix things.. all the things.. but you have reach out first to see how my queue looks. ( all things arcade/pinball/computer ) ... do not do house calls, repairs are generally live streamed on twitch.

I could get you just the kit. It's not a fun install though. The guy I got mine through only ends out charging $20-30 for the install.

Most do but it's dark so you need to install a RGB amp

There are decent SCART > HDMI adapters for cheap. Most of the consoles only need the $15 cable then you are golden. Its no framemeister but looks really good.

Plus who doesnt have one of those NEC x29 or whatever RGB monitors lying around?
