Lightbulb BMW E46 8 or 9inch????

Hi, i see in many posts how alot of you guys make custom bezels for the bmw e46 double din monitor. But according to all the info i've gathered, is it possible to fit in an 8 inch monitor like this one.

the lilliput one, i took measures of my dash and i think it could be done. I'm open to any ideas/suggestion, as i will try to install either the 8inch one and maybe if i can find a 9inch widescreen that is small enough to fit it in.


Let me know thanks.!

I have one of these in my E39, and it's roughly the same size.

I'm pretty sure it will fit, but certainly not into the cirrent custom bezels. You'd have to get someone like srctrc to make you one, or make one yourself.

have a look in my sig (Bezel) for exact measurements of the screen. I have (I'm pretty sure) the same screen, it's the LinITX 8" Wide version


But I don't think a 9" would fit, not without some major mods.
