    So what's the best single/double din monitor?

    I need a monitor.

    Single Din, Double Din, non-motorized, motorized...it don't matter.

    Lilliput motorized? Xenarc IDT700? Digitalww?

    Which models are good and which are ones you want to avoid?

    Top 3 screens to look into (must fit into single or double din)?

    The BEST (IMO) is the 7" transflective lilliput

    Well I'm looking for a screen which won't require fab work. I don't have the time nowadays to work with bondo/fiberglass, mod my dash, etc.

    I would like to compare screens which will install in a much simpler fashion (ie mount right into a single or double din opening).

    I think the only lilliput option is the one with the motorized screen, and I read those have quite a few issues.

    Xenarc only makes the IDT700, correct? I also read about mounting issues with these.

    The other options I have come across are the ebay double-din screens, but I am weary to order based off of a sketchy ebay ad, with the product shipped from hong kong.

    I should also mention the double-din kits made by Bybyte as options, too.

    The double-din screen being developed with help from mp3car.com users seems to be too far in the future for me.

    So I guess what I'm really asking is:
    Xenarc IDT700, Lilliput motorized, or Bybyte frame+Lilliput --which has the best track record?

    The Xenarc or the Bybyte+Lilli (I have this one) are your best bets.

    that would depend on what your putting it in, but i don't think there is any screen that fits any car perfectly with 0 fabrication.
