Hey Guys ! Saw a user asking about this and decided to help! I searched the internet for a good 10 minutes before finding it , and if there are any others planning to do this im trying to save you a trip!NOTE*-this is not my work.


Disclaimer
I have given all involved parties credit for their work.
I have "summed up" the tutorial and have taken out parts which I deemed not completely necessary. You are following this tutorial under your own discretion.


Requirements
- A Flathead Screwdriver
- A Torx 8 Screwdriver
- A Soldering Iron
- Some Solder
- An Xbox 360 Slim Console
- A 7" LCD Display with AV cables
- Styrene Sheeting


Step By Step

Step 5: Start taking apart your console. For this step you'll need a flathead screwdriver.

Step 6: Continue to use the flathead to open the clips holding the chrome to the shell.

Step 7: Here you're going to want to stick the flathead onto the warranty sticker and press down, it should pop out.

Step 8: Once the one shell side is removed start unscrewing these long black screws, you will need a Torx 8 screwdriver.

Step 9: When removing the faceplate note the blue ribbon wire, DO NOT rip it.

Step 10: Take out the Logic Board

Step 11: When cutting a window for the LCD screen keep in mind where the clips and mounting points are (you don't want to damage & or break them!)

Step 12: For this step you'll need a dremel tool. Place tape around the area you wish to cut (the plastic melts back as its being cut and this saves work)

Step 13: Place the LCD display frame in the window you just cut (Make any necessary adjustments)

Step 14: Put Styrene sheeting used around the edges so you can raise the screen out and have it sit level.

Step 15: Drill two holes for the 3.5mm headphone / speaker jack and the switch for the component output.

That's so cool, I was thinking about getting one of the GAEMS monitors but I might end up doing this instead.
