I have an Anovos kit and the GBfans wand light kit. Am I correct in mounting the [bar graph](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bar-graph) the following way? From videos I’ve seen its suppose to start from the bottom. The problem is that the board hits the side and isn’t flush with the window pane if I mount it this way.

Should I just mount it the opposite direction? My only other option would be to Dremel a small slit on the side so the circuit board slides in. However, I’m reluctant to do that.

Can someone please post a picture of how they have mounted the [bar graph](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bar-graph)? I have looked everywhere.

I don’t have any pictures, but I mounted the [bar graph](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bar-graph) on some standoffs and epoxied the standoffs to the inside of the thrower. No dremeling was needed.

Also, looking at your pic, I think you may be trying to install the board the wrong way up. Try installing it with the readout next to the side of the thrower with the tab side (the side with the connector and mounting holes) on the inside.

It should scroll from bottom to the top. Line up the [bar graph](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/bar-graph) up the best way it can fit, if it is scrolling the wrong direction, pull the ribbon from the wand board and flip the pins 180° so the pins are facing the other way. You’ll probably have to Dremel booth the wand and board regardless. I highly suggest getting spongeface s bezel kit and fileing out the one that comes on the anovos one. It places the lights up, it snaps in making it easier to install the bar, plus it makes the bar lights look more accurate

When idling, mine scrolls from bottom to top and I did not need to Dremel anything to install the board in my Anovos thrower.

What size standoffs did you get? 4mm?

I bought a kit of 2.5M standoffs. The kit came with a bunch of different height standoffs that could be combined to give you additional height options . I don’t remember which standoff or combination of standoffs I used.
