NOTE: Acrylic is a hard and stiff plastic which is sensitive to stress concentrations and shares a certain level of fragility with glass. Acrylic can scratch easily and should be cleaned with a mild solution of dish detergent and warm water. Never use cleaners unsuitable for acrylic. Never use a dry, abrasive cloth.
Here are the parts from the case kit:
Follow these images checking parts and orientation of the acrylic pieces. You will see a before and after image for each step. Make sure you have all the parts ready, shown in the before picture.
Orientate your Pi to match the above picture and secure the 1" M/F stand offs in the bottom-left, bottom-right and top-right corners using the 1/4" F/F stand offs.
OPTIONAL - Wall Mount
Attach the wall mounting bracket to the rear acrylic plate using the two M5 screws and nuts.
Now we need to attach the Pi to the rear plate using four 1/4" black screws.
Attach the camera cable to your Pi.
Next thing to do is attach the side acrylic plates. Make sure you have each of the 4 camera box walls in the correct orientation. The edges marked with an arrow should be facing up, opposite side slotting into the bottom plate.
Now we need to attach our camera modle to the front plate. Start by placing the thin clear acrylic plate into position and insert a M2 x 10mm screw into each corner mounting hole.
Carefully turn the plate over so the ends of the screws are now facing you. Place TWO M2 washers onto each of the screws.
Add the camera module and secure in place using the M2 nuts.
Time to attach our camera cable to our camera module.
Finally secure the top plate into position using the 1/4" black screws.
OPTIONAL - Camera Lens
In the little lens box, you will find a magnetic metal ring. Peel off the blue protective film, peel off the self-adhesive backing and stick the metal ring to the front of the case around the camera lens. Be sure to press it on nice an firm so you get a good fit.
Now simply place the lens onto the magnetic ring!
