I have an 8" monitor so it fits pretty well. I disassembled the monitor and marked up the bezel and went at it with a Dremel and air tools. I then used a product called plastic weld that is an epoxy and plastic glue in one.

Yes I go on there and posted pics of the car in the sound system section to see what the non computer geeks think about a PC in an Xb.

Nice Work....
I am running a 7" in mine. Temp install until I get the guts to mount in the dash.

Check out www.scionevolution.com as well.......

These are the finished photos of the monitor install.

Looks great! :)

Just want to also congratulate you on your work so far. BTW, is this the same model as appeared in an episode of Pimp my Ride? Being in the UK I am unfamiliar with many (especially newer) American cars. I'm sure Xibit bought one of these for some guy in one of the episodes?

Oh, another thing...

30+ mpg! Woah, that's great (snigger)... suppose it is for an American car. Over the pond that wouldn't be seen as that efficient - my mini does 45mpg+ and its 21 years old! But suppose your "gas" is much cheaper than ours so I'll just get my cloak and leave quietly... ;)

It gets such good gas milage because it is a Japanese car. Toyota makes them.

Ahhh... thats why it does 30+ mpg. Was about to say, no American Car does more than 20mpg do they? ;)

my sister has an Xa....I understand that toyota makes them but did they have to leave the toyota emblem on the engine?.... :confused:

also, not to be picky but you should of hidden your amps under the raised floor too... and cover the floor in the same color carpet...

other then that its a pretty good install...

you have 108 horsepower in the most aerodynamic car on the market. drive safe.
