The only thing I didn't like about my Humax was the barely legible front panel display. Over the weekend I removed the orange filter that is glued to the front of the VFD module. I now have a clear display, even in standby. Not only that but the green display colour compliments the 'blue circle'.

Only moderate difficulty level and took about 20 minutes. Would recommend if you are unhappy with your display.

Nice idea, but only recommended to those who's Humax is out of warranty.

From a hassle perspective I'd agree with you Dave. Under consumer law however the fact that you opened the case does not void the warranty. A warranty covers faults in materials and labour. The vendor would have to show that your actions contributed to the fault. This might mean you have an argument and yes, some may agree it's not worth the aggravation.

Cheers.
