Instructions for G5 backplate replacement and motherboard mounting.
Kit contents:
1 x Motherboard tray; 8 x 8mm M3 Standoffs and washers; 4 x M3.5 short cross head screws
(attach mobo tray to up to 4 lower standoffs on some G5 models); 12 x 3mm acrylic washers (3 per
M3.5 screw); 10 x M3 screws and washers (attach mobo tray to shelf attachment points on ALL
models and to attach lower part of tray to case on some G5 models); 1x brushed aluminium
backplate; 1 x acrylic cut out for I/O; 1 x fan support drilling template; 10 x M3 screws - attach
backplate to G5; 10 x M3 Nyloc nuts - attach backplate to G5; 2 x M3 screws -attach cut-out for I/O
to fan support; 2 x 10mm standoffs - attach cut-out for I/O to fan support 2 x M3 nyloc nuts - attach
cut-out for I/O to fan support
Instructions:
The case should be stripped of all electrical items and fittings prior to kit installation so as to avoid
problems with drilling swarf. The directions below do not detail the full stripping process.
BACKPLATE
1.
With the G5 stripped and fans removed, offer up the backplate to the rear of the G5 and do
a test fit. Test fitting means simply laying the backplate against the rear of the G5
and ,using the PCI slots as a reference and starting from the upper right hand corner place
the short M3 screws through aligned holes in the G5 backplate.
2.
With the new backplate lying against the G5
back, this will show you where you will need to
cut away material. I suggest scribing around the
inside of where the fan holes will be, as well as
around the I/O cut out. REMEMBER you must
keep the material of the G5 backplate that you
are going to secure the screws to, so it is a
good idea to mark with a pen or similar the
position of the mount holes.
3.
Once you have marked up the areas to be
removed, you can start cutting the G5 back. If in
doubt under cut and then go back and cut more
later - you can always remove material, but
putting it back is not so easy....
