What to do with an 8" roofmount LCD

**Peoples** · 07-27-2005, 07:35 AM

Since I dont have an SUV anymore, I'm trying to think of alternative uses for my LCD.

So far the the only thing I can think of is a halloween costume of a tellatubby crossed with the rabit from donnie darko, then I could have some kinda screwed up video playing on the LCD...like in the movie the ring. But this would require me to have to walk around with a large battery and a dvd player strapped to me.

Anybody got any other suggestions?

Take the screen out, flip it over and use it as a pop up console monitor.

Is it VGA? if it is, use it in your house somehow. Put it in your bathroom or kitchen or something. Even if it's not VGA, you can still watch movies or TV on it.

Peace,

Better yet - do a pimp-my-ride thing. Put it in your door, or on your trunk or something. Have it show diagnostics when you flip the trunk open :-P

I'm in need of an 8" roofmount enclosure. You can take out the lcd and sell me the housing.

If you own your own house.... DO A HOUSE-PUTER!
Seriously.... mount the 8" by the front door or in the kitchen into the wall and you could control lights, a security system, sprinklers, coffee maker.. whatever.

or...

build a HTPC, and get a touchscreen overlay for the screen and use the screen as a remote to control it.
