Touchscreen under 4" high?

dingo4u · 10-30-2007, 02:48 PM

I'm building a PC into my Ford Focus ZX3, the opening for the radio is 3.5x7 - 4x7.5 depending on how deep the screen is and whether or not it sits flush with the console (there is a small lip inside the opening). I'd be willing to use an open-frame model and customize my own bezel, especially since I'll probably have to do that anyway to accomodate custom controls on the side.

I'm looking for a USB based touchscreen that would fit in that space, either out of box or after removing/modifying the bezel.

Does anybody know of a screen that will work for me? I'm considering http://cgi.ebay.com/Lilliput-7-Touch...QQcmdZViewItem since it's close in size and looks like it would fit without the bezel, but I'm worried about buying it if I don't know for sure.

Yes this item will work, but if you want a close start for a frame also check out mp3car.com's kit. Since that is a very good price on the screen I say buy it now

Then you can have mp3car install the LCD if you don't want to mess with the panel inners.
