First : Apologies for the layout of the thread as I don't create them often.

I've seen people selling 'laser cut' inlays for the PS5 logo cutout in the removable panel. I decided to DIY it with a photo printer and some photo paper. It should look like this when finished :

I attached below (1.jpg) a customized version of the retro PlayStation logo. Download it. Yes it looks ridiculous - I just overshot some colors to make it easier to place when you're taping it in.

Use the free app (available in windows store) " irfanview " to open and print the image using the exact size specs as seen in the screenshot I took.
For best results - Click "Printer setup" and select Photo printing, best quality etc - and USE PHOTOPAPER for a proper gloss finish inside.

Once printed - cut roughly as shown :

Then place it inside the removed panel - eyeball lining it up on the other side. Tape it with some harmless scotch tape.

You're done!!! Enjoy the look!
