I use weather stripping the cover all the light leaks by putting it around the inside of the doors. Also, I used Clear Heavy Duty tape to tape shut all leaks along the coners of the box.

I used (2) Cpu Fans from "Best Buy" that are rated at 73.6 CFM each/ Combined Total of 115.2 CFM. I used a Drill to put guide holes to insert the Jig Saw Blade and cut the hole for the CPU Fans. Then I connected the (2) CPU Fans together to the same plug. The I used the 4' by 8' metal duct to let fresh air in.
* Used the Jigsaw to make all openings.

I used poster board cover light leeks around the inner part of the door. When I installed the doors there was 1\4 inch gap so I taped poster board to over lap the other door.

When I was applying the Mylar I noticed that doubble sided tape might have been easier to use instead of clear tape. Also when choosing a surge protector don't go cheap use one that handles alot, I had to learn the hard way. And heres the final product!!!!
