Hi Guys,
My new Xformer arrived, it should have all it's smoke inside it for now,
hopefully I can keep it there.

No saving the last one, I think it was already like this:

Original Xformer Cover Template:

What I have learned so far is, check the footprint of the
new component going on meets your specs!
It might have greater margins than you have Grin
Lucky I found out before drilling, only one shot to use the
original cover for a mount converter.
The new one is vertical mount.
Cheers, B.
