| 2x1cm?? My pcb (not M1 OEM) is about 2.5 x 4cm! Somehow I never pictured the
| M1 OEM as being *that* small.

I guessed the meassured from memory.

That works, no problem there. A bit thick but you cna color it to be less obstrusive.

| the end of the prism - so its just hotglued there.

I need the lens to be pretty near the display too.

|(Hotglue is great for semi-permanent
| work...stays indefinitely and comes off easily.) My mirror is also mounted on
| the sunglasses themselves. Problems: cable too stiff (I'm using heatshrink -
| not good) and can interfere with how the sunnies "sit", still cannot close the
| sunglasses for times when they are not in use. Reconfiguration is inevitable.
| Positives: very clear image and I can wear for hours on end with no problems.

Sound very nice!

| Just one strange thing...I found the orientation of the cyberdisplay had to
| be arranged 180deg out from Don's photos to get image orientation right! Still
| can't figure that one out :)

I found it to be a good idea to mark the left upper edge to not get it wrong
and check it during assembly.
