    I couldn't do much yesterday, so I just did a couple of small jobs.

    The cheapo WiFi card I am using doesn't have a detachable antenna, so I bought a cheap extension lead from Ebay, cut off the socket end and soldered it direct to the card. I then drilled a hole and mounted it on the back panel, fitted an old router aerial I had laying about and the WiFi signal has gone from 2 bars to 4.

    The other small job I did was to mount the HID PCB and cut the LCD screen wires to the correct size.

    I am not sure if the front panel is on it's way back to me yet, but if it doesn't arrive, tonight I will pre-wire the joysticks and buttons ready for it.
