Thread: Euro (UK) Ford Mondeo ST200 indash install

Is this the 8 " monitor from Lilliput? I own a 1999 Mondeo myself, and have the 8 " Lilliput. This looks interesting...

Ak, looks much better than my Mondy install. Very nice mate.

Guess this only works for 7" Lilliput, and that my 8" Lilliput is too big to mount in such a way in a Mondeo...

Dont give up hope on your 8 inch, I am in the process of fitting my 8 innch lilliput in my 98 mondeo and am about 90% there
Your right it wont be the same, I couldnt use the fascia that came with the screen but the lcd itself will fit in the panel ... just
I'll post some pics when I get a chance, where have u guys above put ur pc's I'm unsure where to put mine (am using a via 10000m)? So possibly in the gap beneith the radio section behing the ash tray..but its a bit tight

Here is the work in progress of the 8 inch so far .... oh I forgot to mention that the buttons need re-locating too..!


So it is possible (my 8inch is 4:3 btw)

Nice! This was inspiring!

Anymore information on how you mounted the 8" Lilliput in there? Where did you put the buttons you had to remove (seat-heater and antispin I guess)?


By the way I got my steering wheel on the left, but thats just a mirrored difference.

ive just bought a 2000 model st 24 but i have a double din dvd player in old car which doesnt fit in mondeo now how did u get urs to fit and where did u put the traction control and seat heater buttons.

I will start my own thread for my 8" lilli when I hav the time am too busy with dissertation at uni atm mo but a few answers quickly:

I have done away with the buttons for the screen and hidden them behind the dash, the screen is controlled by the remote control (have extended the ir LED and inset in the cig lighter)

I only have the LX version of the Mondeo so I didnt have to re-locate the button for traction and seat heaters as this model doesnt have those luxuries u might be able to move them to the footwell if u really wana giv it a go but u wud prob hav to extend the harnesses! Alternatively u could try using smaller switches if ur good with ur lecky know-how.

To be hoest, although the 8" looks sweet now its all in, it was a real tight squeeze and required sum butchering of dash internals to do so ... so in heinsight I would probably of just used a 7 if it werent for the fact I wanted to be different and go bigger while lookin OEM !

As I promised I will post all my work log pics in a seperate "Show of your project" thra]ead and put a link here when time permits.
I'll try look back here if u guys have any qu ...

Goodluck
