Big thanks to Mr Wilks and John-e89.

No problem John.

I can see how the alignment is adjusted now (found an RPi DIY) - looks like I’ll have dirty hands again tomorrow 😂

X2..

The look, is awesome..
Add in the sounds, that emanate too & they're, a far superior item - compared to the OEM boxes, IMHO :thumbsup:
