1994 Maxima LCD Install

Cecplex · 06-15-2004, 07:05 PM

I have a nice Mini-ITX system that I built. It's currently residing under my car seat however I am having some issues with the LCD.

I want to install a touch screen LCD in the control deck.

Here's a picture of what I have to work with.

Thats not my car exactly, but it's close to it. I either want to take the top out and the bottom out and put a flat screen touch screen LCD in or leave the top in and put a slide out and up LCD screen. Problem is, I have no idea which is the best and I doubt I could find a slide out and up LCD screen that takes VGA input.

Any ideas at all?

Thank You

You can get a slide-out RCA screen and then use the VGA<>RCA converter device (costs $40 on ebay) to convert your signal. Although usually RCA screens have crappy resolution, but if you increase the font you should be able to see what's playing.

I need VGA, RCA sucks

Are there any 2 DIN LCD's out there, that will fit the space exactly?

What type of 7" LCD would fit in a double DIN? (I was planning on moving the stereo down and putting the LCD up on top of that)

cecplex, hey whats up man i have a third gen max also, i got a 1993 max. I imagine a liliput or xenarc will fit as many others here have put them in double din location on their cars i dont see how it would be different. also i would check out digitalww.com as they have a vga indash housing or as a unit that will fit in one din if thats what your looking for. I however am trying to cram a 10inch monitor in that spot so i guess i have lotsa fiberglassing bondo-ing other fabrication etc. to do. Wish ya luck.
