Yeah really good idea for the screen surround and nice low profile install in the boot.

Did you get your laptop outputting 800x480 or are you running at 800x600?

Got GPS in there yet?

911 yeah, its a Porsche killer with 280PS
The screen cover was too expensive I paid like 350 Euro for it, it was a rip-off
and does not even perfect as I was imagining, I went to the wrog Leather Shop.

350 euros????? should have done it yourself. I hope you got the cow the leather came from so you can have a good BBQ for that price!!!!

Oh well, done now and i think it looks pretty cool.

Could you post details (do you have them?) about how the leather is applied on the case?

I dont remember there was enought room between the screen and the "screen case" for the leather... Doest the leather interfere with touch/viewing of the screen? I mean in the corners, in the bezels, dont know quite how to explain...

Is the leather a wrp-around the whole plastic casing, or is it just "glued on" to the external part? Thats what I mean. Do you have pics of the process, or did you give specific insturctions to the leather shop that you can share?

Thanks!

Hi RoyN

Yeah the leather is a wrap-around. I did not give the shop any instruction but i went to the wrong shop.
The leather does interfere sometimes with the lower left corner.
I already did some padding between the touch screen and the inside of
the case (i don't have pics, i'll make some when i take the display home).

Hi Xequtor,

I Wonder how did you manage to get the sound from your vaio to play through your Concert II factory fitted unit. I`m performing a very simmilar install with a toshiba laptop on a 2004 Audi A3 S-line. I've bought an adapter from a German online store selling audio gear but It does not work, it only has two wires with RCA jacks and goes directly to the CD-changer connector at the back of the concert... so there's no way to select the external aux audio source....

Any ideas? How did you solve this Issue...

Regards and congratulations for your project, really nice your leather screen cover....
