*How* to mount display (2002 Frontier)

jsd8cc · 06-10-2008, 12:13 PM

Hi all, new here. I have a 2002 Nissan Frontier, and I'm planning on getting a Xenarc 700TSV.

Here's a picture of the dash (not mine):

As you can see, there's a 2-din stock stereo, perfect for a display; and the recess underneath is where I'll cram the computer.

The stereo opening is exactly 7" x 4". Xenarc lists the 700TSV dimensions (with bezel) at 7.75W x 4.75H x 1.38D.

Any ideas on how I can mount it either with the bezel or without? I'm worried about the buttons on the bottom of the display not fitting. But the biggest question is how to mount the display. Epoxy? Screws? I'd like to have it as flush and stock-looking as possible, however I don't have a shop and I'm not a fabrication guru.

Thanks!

If I were you I'd check in the fab section. Lots of great people working in that part of the forums

Check out my work in my threads. I'll get the job done, people will think its stock

Check out the VIA ARTiGO PicoITX kit for the computer. I don't know how big that space is, but the ARTiGO may fit pretty nicely; its dimensions are 5.9"(L) x 4.3"(D) x 1.8"(H) (15cm x 11cm x 4.5cm).
