These are the first good pics I've seen of a PSOne monitor and GPS. Interesting. You say it's mod'd. Did you do the VGA mod? Or something else. I'll looking into using this monitor for my first run.

carpcnoobie and j81bird the PSOne LCD is VGA Modded. I make the TTL Circuit that convert HSync and VSync to CSync along with Matrox Mystic 200 video card. This card is known to work with PowerStrip setting @ 600x680 interlate mode.

Thumbs up

AWESOME Im going to be doing the same to my 87 Turbo, Why did you go w/ the PS screen when we have a double DIN, a screen will fit perfect in there, and you should take tht mouse apart or get a smaller one and place it in the flip up box, so its conceled when not needed.

good job though,

cassio

The double DIN is occupied by the Alpine HU and Sony EQ. Unless I go HU less, but that is not an option for me as I need AM radio for LA traffic. Sometime later (I don't know when) I will modify the LCD so that it will fit in a 1/2 DIN or full DIN and I have to move the EQ somewhere.
