I have a nice front panel from FPE. It was made for use with a Raspberry PI based streamer.... unfortunately the cavity on the inside does not fit the VFD I am planning on using.
The panel is 4mm thick.
On the rear side, there is a cavity behind the "Pi" symbol for inserting a IR receiver if wanted.
The panel costs around $65, I will sell it as-is with the LCD and backpack inside for $25 shipped in the US.
It fits Hammond series 1455 cases, which come in varying depths that can fit a Pi project (see pictures for an example)
In my project I used a Digi+ and put a BNC on the rear panel, but you can use a DAC module and put 2 analog RCA's for a complete streamer.
P.S. There are 4 threaded holes on the inside for mounting the LCD. 2 diagonal ones have perfect alignment with standard LCD's, while 2 are offset and cannot be used. None of this really matters as the LCD fits snug in the cavity and does not actually need any screws at all for a secure fit
