How did you secure the plywood panel? Is it removable to give access to the cavity? How did you route the cables? Is the frame the original?

Curious minds want to know since I am sure this upgrade is somewhere in my future.

Looks great. I like how you painted the cabinet. What a difference that will be watching TV.

I used original face frame and screwed and glued 3/4" plywood on the inside of frame using 1 1/4" dry wall screws and i added 5 more counter sink screw holes on the face frame for (three at the bottom and two on sides) to hold the new weight. cables are routed same as the old, i just put a 2" hole at the bottom left to route cable/power behind. face frame can still be removed just by removing the wood plugs covering the screws.
