For those of you who have a TV installed custom on the dash, do you have any photos or tips on installing/cutting for the TV unit to fit in dash? Most likely i will have it professionally done but if it is possible, i would like to do it myself. Do you need any kit for mounting it or any wiring specs i need? Input would greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

 

Hey Big Red,

This is what I did for my S, it gives you two options.

here are some pics for you to check out...

 

mine is being changed to just a flat screen, no flip up any more for me. It is possible to put in yourself but measure 10 times cut once and repeat. The mount I made is fiberglass. heres how i did it.
1. apply masking tape to your whole dash. be sure to cover everything ie. seats, console, floor.
2. lay fiberglass on the working area
3. the messy part. use a paint roller to apply fiberglass resin
4. let dry, you now have a mold of your dash
5. cut the hole where you want the din in the fiberglass.
6. DONT FORGET TO DO THIS PART. lay your mold back on the dash and trace the hole you just cut onto the dash.
7. cut the fiberglass around the din. I left about an inch overhang.
8. paint it till satisfied.
9. start hacking away at the dash.
10. place the mount you made in the dash. secured mine with jb weld, works great, I found this out when trying to remove the mount for the new screen.

Hope this gives you somewhat of an idea.

 

How much is the rear view monitor? also where can i get it, looked all over and cant find a price. maybe a group buy? I want a display for info purposes, but don't want to cut the dash in possible.

Thanks
