I got tired of having all my projects show the rough edges of the cut when using 16x2 LCD's in projects, this solves that and also adds a level of protection for the fragile glass face of the LCD. Th…

Love this thing!

I do not cut pretty holes for these LCD screens, but this saves me every time! The holes all line up perfectly and it is a great template if I do say so. Highly recommended.

Nice looking solution for LCD display mounting in a panel.

This bezel looks good and provides a means of mounting the LCD with or without Arduino. There was no documentation, but it is pretty much self-explanatory.
Good Product - Thanks!

Works Great, Looks Amazing, and Lined Up Perfectly!

Widgeneering did a great job with this product and I highly, highly recommend this bezel.

Everything lined up perfectly and even shipped with a protective film on both the clear and the black bezel.

Using with a 1602A LCD.

Good but can be improved

The bezel fits perfectly. However, the material of back plate has exfoliating tendencies and the bezel is not painted as a strong grey color (a bit fade). The back plate gets too close to the I2C optional shield molex connector. Functionally receives the mark 9.5 out of 10. I'll buy more.

The ribbon on the package, the icing on the cake!

Want your finished project to look professional? This LCD Bezel will make the difference between mediocre and first class. I've bought 3 so far and will be back when I need more.

Excellent item to finish your project!

The workmanship is first class. You know how you put the icing to finish a cake and tie a ribbon to finish wrapping a package - this is what you need for your projects with LCD displays. Puts your item on the next level and makes that much difference! I did not need documentation and had no communication with the vendor. Item was packaged well and shipped fast. Protective film is left in place to prevent damage and fasteners were provided

Clear Backplate

This bezel is exactly what I needed to showcase my low power ham radio. My digital display cutout was very rough. That is, it wasn't too straight and lacked clearly defined cutout. I added this bezel and all my cutout imperfections are now hidden. What a clear change this bezel makes to the appearance of my radio. It now looks professionally done.

16x2 LCD Bezel

I seen it on someone's Bitx-40 construction, it makes the radio more professional looking especially if you cut out the hole and the lcd display doesn't fit properly or if the cut just looks a bit messy.

very nice

When I cut a hole for an LCD in plastic or metal using a Dremel tool or nibbler it comes out pretty ragged. Bezel to the rescue, and this is a nice one.

Finally My Project Look Good

These bezels even make my worst cut lcd display holes beautiful and they are large enough to cover my biggest mistakes. They are easy to install and worth every penny. I looked for them for a long time and will keep buying them.

exactly as described, worked well

This product is exactly as described by the inventor. I would prefer four more nuts to be included in the kit to allow spacing the bezel a precise distance from the LCD circuit board otherwise the plastic bezel warps/bends on the LCD display when tightening everything down during mounting. Of course the nuts are pretty easy to source yourself at your local fastener store.

Response from Widgeneering | July 15, 2016

Thanks for the review!

The faceplates usually ship with 8 nuts for this purpose, it's possible some nuts were left out of your package and my apologies on that one. If you need any extras i'm happy to send some your way.

Excellent product

Perfect finish to 16X2 LCD. I mounted it in a simple ABS project box but this thing would look good on any kind of box. The control box I built was for use in a restaurant environment so a finished look was critical and I know I couldn't have done anything close to this good (and I love that it made up for my poor Dremel skills so I didn't have to pay to have the box milled).

It shipped with protective covering on the surfaces of the bezel and the backplate and has all the hardware you need to mount. I felt like it was very reasonably priced and certainly worth every penny. I just bought 4 more for additional control boxes.
