How to wire Mac G5 case front panel for dummies?!

[mynameisjames]

Im trying to mod a mac G5 case but im not realy good at the wiring part, ive seen the wiring diagram but i dont realy understand.. please help!

Exactly what isn't that your understanding?

the diagram is pretty straight up. you have the 18 pin connector and you then have to run the proper wires out from that to their own individual connectors, like the USB, firewire, audio, Power- and Power+

You need to make sure you have the connectors and long enough wire, all that is listed in the G5 resources thread.

If you look through my G5 build thread you will see several photos describing how to wire up the front panel and the parts used listed on the G5 resource thread viewtopic.php?f=76&t=41145
