We reeccomend NEC, Mitsubishi, and Toshiba for just about any application for the best overall quality. Stay away from AUO. The brandnames like Lilliput etc. mean nothing to me, please refer to earlier posting about this. It all depends upon the manufacturer of the LCD. If you are going to make a custom bezel, or mount in dash I suggest going to Jaco electronics, Bell Micro, or some other authorized manufacturer dealer of lcds. Once again, make sure when you buy one that it comes with the controller board, inverter and power supply. You should expect to pay (for open frame lcd) between $220 - $320 depending upon size, resolution, temp limits etc. So for a 7" lcd you should get a pricing of around:
LCD $269
Touchscreen $156
Transflective $245
------------------
$670 + or - $35

This is just an estimation, of cost, I make no claims to its accuracy.
