Wow, looks cool, one thing you might have wanted to do is to use a flat paint... I hadnt thought of mounting it there, seems I will be chaning my mounting position when I do mine... So I can have room for my AFC, and misc other gadgets... yeah our Rubber is a real pain in the ***, good job none the less.
I like that Idea so I may have to steal it... ;)

Any chance you could post the width and height of the lcd so I can cut out a peice of cardboard and see if the size will work out ok for what I need (just actual lcd size will be fine).

A little late to answer this, but it is seriously I can't open the dash right now to make measurement. There are some people who currently have an open PSOne screen on their desk. Look up the display forum and ask those.Quote:

Or maybe when I REALLY have a lot of time to redo the fab for the screen (right now it look okay but UGLY). ;)
If you want, I don't mind.Quote:

Good luck with the Matrix, thats a really nice car.
Seriously, I wouldn't trade my modded PSone + Matrox video card for a Lilliput. I have both and I now the quality of this PSOne. The PSOne LCD has been moded by so many people not only on this forum but elsewhere as well.Quote:

The worst part of this in dash is not the LCD, but the radio bezel. What type of material can make the rubberized plastic stick with ABS?
If you have an MK3 Supra, you know what I am talking about.
I'm aware of the better visability of a ps1 screen...but the circuit board is bulky and its not a touch...thats just my opinion though...not intended to insult.Quote:
