post your cabby pic first.

how to cut the side panel ?
Best Configuration within 30K

In google give the name of the cabby you have .From image select a picture with a side panel. draw a sketch in paintbrush for the side panel. or you can take a picture of your cabby and then do the job in system.

Now, draw that same sketch with a pencil on the side panel.go to a tin cutter (generally grill worker).Best Configuration within 30K


total cost ?
acrylic will be within 100 bucks.

no idea about silicon gel

just googled it.

you do for yourself.

after you buy that sheet and design it, some wastage will come out. now make a screw driver hot and pierce it through the sheet(in the wastage part) first. or you can drill it from a carpenter keeping a thick cloth beneath so that it will not crack.

after all these are done you may go for lighting portion. i will tell you that after you finish the first part.

do you have any problem in posting the pic
ok at least tell me the model name and number of your cabby.

Quote:

u have searched in the glass selling shop? though not all glass shops have it.
OR

any relative u have in kolkata? i can arrange for the same.


Quote:

pls don't. it will increase the weight of the cabby. & the chance of breaking is high.

Quote:
not able to find rubber u channel.
why is it required?

great.

Have a look here : http://www.lian-li.com/v2/en/product...=2&sc_index=29

Lian-Li sells separate side-panels. So if u can buy this then no need to do any cutting.
