Thread: Boss 7.2" LCD, Need opinions

Hey everyone...

I want to get a 6.4inch to 7.2 inch lcd pannel for my jeep's computer. I do want to take the cheap way out since i am a poor college student. To begin, i had a 6.4 inch lcd pannel with 250:1 contrast and a brightness of 200 (i think)...to tell you the truth it really wasnt that bad, i pulled it from a Durabrand Mobile DVD center which i mounted under my rear seats and ran ribbon wire up to the monitor.

My jeep is fully darkly tinted (you can see from my cardomain page) so it actually was fairly bright. i plan to be running a screen resolution of 640x480 at the most....As for resolution and clarity.....i dont care about having it perfect....its not like im gunna be using a word processor or anything. The clarity im looking for at minimum is to be able to make out that the 'start' in the windows taskbar is legiable at 800X600...

I found a 7.2" boss LCD monitor for as low as $85 + shipping through a few stores, its here for $107 with cheap shipping.

i wanna stay away from ebay, i saw some shysters and it just doesnt look like a smart thing to do, especially from sellers like mp3store.
