shouldn't be a problem if you keep the top up then
btw You already have a screen
a kickass screen

What is this "top up" you speak of? 
Yes, I have a screen and I CAN see it in bright
but I was just pointing out that one may be a bit of a challenge. I wouldn't buy it unless it came with a money back guarantee in case it is problematic in the vertible

ive had this unit for about a week now, since i am rewiring my system, i have no sound, wouldnt matter anyway since i am not using the JVC processing. my first impression are pretty good build quality, nice picture, pretty easy to use, except a few things.
Is it worth the retail price, no! Is it worth dealer cost, Yes! honestly, there is no point in having this unit but the bling factor. Youre probably asking me my did i get this unit then, well, it was not my original intent to get this unit, i actually ordered the KD-ADV6160, but since i have a competition coming up this sunday, i need what i can get with optical output.
So, i guess if build quality, having a tv but no space and bling factor is what youre looking to get, this is the unit for you.

oh and do you want to sell it when your KD-ADV6160 comes in
yeah, does it fit without issue? i thought it might but it has a border around it that looks larger than stock.
show us, show us please.
oh, and thanks for the help guys.

I am thinking to go for this unit also.
Meth, did you try to install yet? Did the faceplate fit inside the cover?
MR ASDF, do you have any more comments? Any pictures?
I thought about KD-ADV6160 also. (I don't care for the LCD. I just want Giga MP3.) But, the knob in 6160 is not retractable like other JVC units. I didn't think I can close the radio cover with 6160. Are you going to modify the cover for this?
