wow, fitting a 17" in-dash (flush?) would be pretty pimp ... def take pics, but be careful not to break it!

The biggest ive seen in a dash wasa 15in in a tahoe. It was freaking weird looking though. I think it was way to big. But i guess if youre albino youre used to weird things....lol. Just playing man. Glad you clarified why you cant see such a small screen. Or this could have been a really long drawn out argument.

I say go for it. Your money, your ride. Who are we to judge

I'll see if i can find that pic i have of the tahoe with the 15in screen and post it for you

Damn good deal on a 17in ELO touchscreen, tho....

sansoo24 · 04-20-2005, 07:12 PM

lol that's freakin crazy and awesome

jamiewhittingha · 04-20-2005, 09:56 PM

DAMM WITH THE LARGE SCREEN LOL I dont know why but that thing seems bigger than mine lol. Well my install is not IN the dash its ON the dash . I cannot install the screen inside the dash - the dash is about 4 inch's way to small all around due to the Jeep's *****ed up design in the 94 model lol. Anyways I built a mounting bracket this evening and attacked the arm to the back of the monitor by screws and used epoxy to attach to the top of the dash and then inserted 2 inch screw's x 4 into the top of the dash - the epoxy would be fine on its own but I wanted to take no chances.

I will take some pictures either tonight in my baby will stop fussing or tomorrow morning. ITS FRIGGING SEXY IN MY EYES WHICH IS ALL THAT MATTERS :P (not ment in an agressive way :P)

And yeah ref me being albino lol I am used to freaky **** I mean how many white headed 21 yr olds do you seen around auto zone and wal mart lol

Cheers guys.

did you ever goto best buy and see that gigantic cube of tv's??? well i put one in my honda civic and hooked up a million gazillion 7" ts modules and now i can read the text!

jamiewhittingha · 04-22-2005, 04:16 AM

anky1, thank you so much for your amazing post. It was really enlightening. However, next time you feel like posting something really ******* childish - don't bother. This post was a serious post that I was asking for views on other large screen installs. Sure if you installed all those monitor's the only thing I would have to say is your moma would be ashamed at your for bull****ing out your arse.

No offence bro :P

cheers

If you bought it that way, where did you get it? I have only seem the way overpriced Xenarc in a VGA LCD flipdown.
Thanks

Sorry to dissapoint you. The flip down is a 15" composite monitor hooked to my Radeon card. The 8" Lilli is in my dash. You can get those 15" flip downs on ebay for pretty good deals.

daaamn.

i like it

n8scstm · 04-25-2005, 10:42 AM

For those of you who don't already know: There is some very good and free webserver software out there. Its very easy to use and allows you to host your own pics or whatever. I use it for temporary stuff like the FP take 4 april fools joke I played. The one I use is called brs webweaver. It also does ftp which is really cool. It beats emailing files to yourself to retrieve on another computer. http://www.brswebweaver.com/

Yeah and wut about this:

One of the most innovative and high-tech features of the SynUS is housed in the tailgate: a 45-inch, flat-screen, high-definition LCD monitor equipped with wireless networking. The massive Sharp monitor takes up the entire space where a back window would have gone. According to Ford, this is the biggest monitor to grace any passenger vehicle, concept or otherwise. With the monitor, passengers can surf the Internet (on a WiFi laptop), watch a movie, play a video game or keep tabs on the outside world via several cameras mounted outside the car.

Im thinking about putting a large screen in my trunk for show purposes
Largest I could find is 18 inch though; want something big. Big and widescreen would be ideal
