Question What screen fits in here???

Hello
I have a little decision to make and i was hoping someone could help me out with it.
As you can see below i've ripped the cage out of the front of another scrap car to install my screen into and then i can simply swap it in for my own.
It's for the front dash of a VW Bora/Jetta.
I was wondering what screen fits in the gap. I'll be getting a friend to mold it in.
The large gap in the center of the cage is 113mm x 190mm. Diagonally the gap is 220mm.
I'm guessing that I'll have to take the LCD panel out of it's housing. I need to know what size will fit and i would ideally like to keep the buttons beside or below the screen as well. The thin slot above the large gap will house a pioneer slimline DVD drive.
So any help would be great and would the new dynamix 7" ultra bright screen be any good?
Thanks
Baz

I would check the measurements on an 8"...I'm guessing that would be a good fit.

Anyone??
can the buttons be put in at an angle to the screen?
Above or below?
I'm looking at a Xenarc 7" touchscreen.
Are the Dynamix screens any good?
