Question

Hey all you experienced peeps, especially those that have this cabinet (I've seen some on here) as this is my first cabinet refurbishment attempt I would like to ask some questions before I start at it with a crowbar to get it open.
I went to take the back panel off like you usually would to gain full access inside. But... no access screws!
I removed what appear to be some wooden 'slider rails', for transporting in the back of a ute/truck on it's back I assume, hoping to find hidden screws, but they are just rails fixed to the back panel.
It seems to be attached from the inside with no indication of external access.
I also unscrewed to top panel hoping to lift it off but again it would not budge with considerable lifting force (by hand)
So the next thing was could I get in from the front to see if there are any internal latches.
There is a lock for the front panel access door but no key! You can see someone has attempted to gain access in the past at the front. Maybe I have to pick it through that cut or something?
The control panel was not latched so at least I could look down inside. It seems to have a PCB already installed and all the necessary cabling and power but I don't want to fire it up until I can gain access to clean and check everything.
I'm going to have another go tomorrow morning at being nice with it, then I'm gonna get hard and heavy with that front lock.
EDIT: Been informed the back doesn't come off it's all form the front. Considering the space in there that sounds.... tight!

My side art came today (local print shop can do EVERYTHING!) ~$45 each side. Application was super simple. I did have to cut them out with a razor knife though, quite tedious. Ohh... and a new hi
