basically I was figuring the LCD would be attached to the far left of the picture. Then it would be able to slide in and out of the glove compartment. Before sliding in it would be able to fold back (face up) and then slide in so the screen is facing upwards. Just a thought. [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

I'm sure that LCD would have cost quite a bit. Personally, I'm hoping for a much smaller display (and thus cheaper :)) that may be able to hide inside the dash.<P>You know, I have exactly the same metal case, and I was going to install a computer in it. Dammit, you beat me to it. :)

A 15" LCD is larger than i originally wanted, but its cheep. I wanted a 8.4" lcd, but that was tripple the price of that i paid for the 15", and their resolution sux, they're usually 1480 x 234, you trying doing anything on that except movies or games. i saw this nice 7" lcd that they used in a shuttle pc mod, but it'll cost me almost $2000cdn for it, i paid $450 for my 15".
