MATERIALS / PARTS LIST


REMOVE GRAPHICS / BRANDING (optional)

Because I wasn't feeling the graphic design on the watch I decided to scratch it all off with a knife. If you do it carefully (more carefully then I did) it turns clear and reveals some of the guts.
VOID WARRANTY




Unscrew the four screws on the back side and remove the back cover. Take the watch band and store it in a safe place in case you ever want to turn this thing back into a wristwatch at some point.
CUT STATIC FREE PLASTIC



Using the watch base as a guide cut a piece of the static free bag leaving enough room to completely cover the unit.
POSITION ON GARMENT



Pick a location to install the media player. Once in place create four holes large enough for the screws to fit through. I used a mechanical pencil to mark the points and then made the holes with something similar to a nail.
EVERYTHING IN PLACE




Position the static free plastic on the top of the four holes in the garment and stick the screws through from the backside.
SCREW IT ALL TOGETHER



Place the media player over the proper screws and screw it in place. Your done. I did it in a vest because that's what I've been wearing lately but it could work equally well in sweatshirts, coats, hats, socks, underwear, etc.
