The best place to mount the LCD is where the current screen is. But to use that spot you have to relocate the OEM screen.
Currently I have the OEM screen in its original place and have the carputer screen right under the radio. I just redid the work and now it looks pretty good and most people think it is factory installed. However, in the first opportunity I will switch the screens. The only thing I have to do is to extend the OEM screen wires so that they will reach down below to the new location. My 7 inch lilliput will basically drop into the place where the OEM screen was. Almost nothing required to even secure it. My only hold-up is a bit of spare time so I could do it.
Since I need to see the screen it going to be hard in the trunk as my arms are too short to reach the steering wheel, much less get my feet on the pedals. :2:
Don't forget, folks.. you only need to replace your screen if you don't have nav. I didn't see it mentioned, so I can't assume you all know that.
Generator seems to have shut down shop for his custom xbox interface to our nav screens, but avelectronic.com still sells devices that provide 2, 3, or more a/v composite or s-vid input sets with outputs to our nav screens and 2 headrests.
You don't have to go nuts adding screens (like someone who shall remain nameless) when you can reuse the nav screen. The kit also introduces audio via rf modulator, so some audiophiles will argue the sound isn't the same, but if anyone wants to give mine a listen, just setup a time with me. Also, you do give up the steering-wheel controls for changing the music, at least until someone skilled in the art here figures out the last bits and pieces of an n-bus -to-serial adapter. In the meantime, you can always control the carputer with IR.

Edit: They still don't. I was looking at the thumb nails. The other pictures seem to be okay. Maybe it has to do when server crashed a little while ago?
