Its stupid. This still is a small car, and you need all the protection you can get. I wouldnt compromise safety for a TV. If god forbid you get into an accident, make sure you have some ketchup, because you are eating that TV. Dont do it, its stupid.

If you really want video, have your installer cut the dash above the radio and glass it in there, similiar to a JDM install. Then you dont have to trash your airbag

You'd have to be insane to install a TV over an the airbag. If I was you I would go get my car away from a shop that would even suggest something that crazy...

Why would you replace a safety device for your passenger with a distraction for the driver? Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me.

Not tom mention that between you and your TV will be a blank space of dash large enough for a decent screen.

Crazy, just plain crazy!
