A600: Vampire HDMI mount/ESC VGA mount
Stefan Egger offers slf-made mounts for the HDMI port of a Vampire 600 and for the VGA port of an Indivision ECS. If you have removed the TV modulator from your Amiga 600, you can set up Egger's mount instead of it - the case has not to be changed. The Vampire version has a HDMI extension and is available for 15 Euro, but only as "limited quantity". The mount for the VGA port is available for 7,50 Euro, but according to Egger "the design has not yet been installed and therefore not tested."

For the VGA mount a STL file is available for free for printing the mount using a 3d printer. (cg) (Translation: dr)
