It's not quite as hidden as the original sass. The mics stick out the 
back, and I used red and blue cables to feed back into the housing. (and 
my stereo feed cable from it is bright blue) You'd have to take the mics 
out of their housings to get it all inside. I was not game to do that, 
not knowing how well it would work, might consider it later with a new 
housing. It won't quite fit in the regular sass case without some foam 
change.

It would probably be possible to build the mics in and keep stock, but I 
placed the mics at the stock location.

I'll try and have at least photos up by the time you are back.

Walt
