DIY Goggles - cheap Dominator HD alternative?

From the comments on my Fatshark Dominator HD review I see that this is a hot topic. So many questions about alternatives to the expensive and hard to get DomHDs.
One really good one is also the cheapes one with extra large picture, good quality and good comfort. I saw these first on a FPV meet (Poolnoodle Challenge) and was amazed by the clear and huge display. Pricing is around 100$, buildtime maybe 1-2h - but really easy!
If you have some questions, comments - don't hesitate! Good luck with the build and have fun!

Check out my blog post here for more details and all the pictures (which are also in the video at the end).

Short shopping-list:
1. Frame (styrofoam) from UK http://goo.gl/pikyzS
2. 5" TFT display from Dealextreme http://goo.gl/Vd419Y
3. better fresnel lens (optional) http://goo.gl/TlJlzp
