I am hunting for a <5" screen for a little bike project I am working up. Anyone know of a good place to get smaller LCD screens from? Picture quality doesn't have to be the greatest, but it does have to have an RCA input.

LCD can have an enclosure/case, or can be raw. I'm looking to keep the price in the sub $50 range if possible. I've searched eBay, but was looking for other options also.

under $50? no way thats gonna happen. a raw driver will be your best bet, but once you hit a certain size and start to get smaller and smaller the price seems to go up and up. these little babies i put inside these mirrors were around $180 ea. but are only 2"X1.5" and have an awesome picture.

Looks clean! I think I am looking for something a little bigger than that lol. I was thinking probably a 3"-4" screen should work well.

3"-4" i think is going to fit you price range alot easier. you can typically find some in those sizes for around $80 or so. picture can be so-so, but their cheap enough.
