oh and it looks like the guy is back on ebay- the price has gone up to 199 though- but that's still great if it's just a rebranded/recased xenarc

i took apart the original casing
only used the controller and screen and mounted it with my double din cage from my hacked up stereo. it wasn't difficult, just different since i have to modify the cage to fit

yup, that's the same thing. SP-719. And it says on the auction it has RCA connectors as well as VGA so if this is a rebranded xenarc it would be comparable to the TSV model. So, in other words, yes you can hook up an xbox to it through RCA inputs.

I am very interested in this screen. It seems like a bargain and he has heaps of them for auction.
http://stores.ebay.com/Audio-Image-E...QQftidZ2QQtZkm
Can one of you guys please give me some dimensions so i can look at how it would fit in my dash?
The one thing that really concerns me is the way the connector seems to stick out below the screen. I wouldnt have room for htis in my dash. Can this be made to come out behind the screen? (see arrow in the picture)
Any info appreciated. Thanks

One more thing - is this really a rebadge of the xenarc screen? Surely the quality cant be equal for such a reduced price..
I have only had experience with a 619 liliput, how do these compare quality wise?
Thanks!

i was just on this guys ebay store and saw this screen
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7987815705
looks like the MTS12000 on the mp3car store
http://www.mp3car.com/store/product_...roducts_id=103
is it? if so can anyone vouch for this seller? ive been looking at his feed back and it seems like a lot of times the item is defective, missing parts or wrong item altogether and he doesnt communicate with the buyers when there is a problem. has anyone had problems with this seller or the items baught?

I would have sent you dimensions, but mine is put in the bezel and its a ***** to take out. The connector thing is also a worry to be because my AC goes underneath, I might have just enough clearance... I think it was Scouse or Jcdillin who said it appeared to be a xenarc lcd panel.
