MP3Car.com - View Single Post - FAQ: Using a Laptop LCD as Your Car PC Screen

Yuriy · 07-07-2005, 01:41 AM

I've done about 4 different laptop installs and I can say that many LCDs of different sizes (but same resolution) will fit many different laptops. For example, an LCD out of an old Compaq LTE 5300 will fit many more powerful Toshiba laptops, etc. Also I made a FAQ long time ago about properly extending your laptop LCD wires, it can be done with most Toshiba LCD panels (many brands use them) that have wires and not ribbon cables.
The thread is not in this section, but you can find it somewhere around here.

Edit: here it is!
