I am getting an LCD screen for my car. The problem is..Where to put the sucker? I an thinking in the cealing to fold down, but it would be hard for the driver to see and there are also some lights there. In the dash wold be a good idea maybe, I just cant figure out where exactly to put it or what I would have to do. Here is a pciture of my dash: https://www.cybermart.ca/car/126_2622.JPG These are the lcd's I am considering: https://cgi.ebay.com/dll?ViewItem&category=48609&item=3091366508&rd=1 https://cgi.ebay.com/dll?ViewItem&category=14946&item=3091372925&rd=1 Thanks!

It depends on what you want it for and who you want to watch the screens. If you want it mainly for the passengers, I would buy at least 2, one for the front and at least one for the back. Looking at your dash, how useful is the stuff below your radio? If you don't use it much, I would take it out and build a molded piece to fit in there with the screen. Or you could mold it onto/into your glove compartment door. My dash is different from yours, but check it out and see if you like it (link in sig). I don't know what car you have, but if a fold down screen would block your rear view, I don't think it would be an ideal place.
