are there different lens spacers for front projection and rear projection
because i just looked and mine say rear projection
but im doing front projection
will i need to get new lens spacers?
or can i like flip them over?

Rear projection spacers will do no good for FP.. you'll need the FP ones. These are black, instead of the light color ones you have. Make sure you have the right CRT spacers for your screensize also, otherwise do the spacer mod. :)

Here is a link to TONS of info on your projector. Read thru all the sections, and grab the manuals.
