Description
The box is designed to be mounted in a wood wall when you have access from the back. The mounting tabs are set for a ¾” thick board, It could be easily adjusted to mount from the front. The wallplate is designed flat on the back and doesn't allow for the thickness of the tabs though. The mounting posts take M3 heat set insert. The following are the ones I used.

I made the wallplate to be used with these solder type plugs you can get them from here

I created parametric models in FreeCAD, so the mount hole locations and the plug location can be adjusted. You can get the latest models at
