Lightbulb Security idea - hide the LCD

The best way to keep your vehicle secure is to make it look as stock as possible...so here's my idea that i'm going to use to hide my lcd...all the rest of my equipment will be hidden anyway.

i have a double-din HU that i'm going to rip out and replace with my LCD. Now my problem is that if some jerk comes and looks in my window, he's gonna see something worth taking.

so my idea is to 'peel' the front of this old HU [look at the pic] off...and place some padding foam on the back [to protect the LCD]. this way i have a facade of sorts...and i could create a hook/latch system to hold it in place while i'm gone.



there are some parts of this idea that suck, like, it's not automatic like this one guy's idea to modify an old cd drive to create a door for the LCD...but it's cheap and within my budget. I don't live in a bad neighborhood, so i can't say that this idea even has a chance in a neighborhood like that - your stuff will get stolen anyway...

anyhow...just thought i'd give a little constructive input....hope you guys like the idea

some modifications to the idea wouldn't hurt either...i know i didn't think of everything
