Rest assured that I will debug the video issue and post pictures in sunlight. I may also post some video (to an external site). For anyone thinking about this custom kit route, I will warn you that the dash installation is complicated! I am having to design my own interposer to mount the IR touchscreen to the LCD and then determine a way to mount the unit into the bezel.

I will be covering this challenge in my fab thread.

Sorry to leave you guys hanging but I will return in three weeks.

Thermoptic. I hope you have survived the busy month at work and look forward to your progress on this over the next few weeks. What exactly do you mean by having to design your own interposer?

I am working on putting a carputer in a 2001 Lincoln LS and am hoping that either the 6 or 8 will fit into the car. Once I get the dash kit in for the car I am going to take a look and see if it will fit and if this is a viable solution.
