Got a flip out screen to fit in that area of the dash. So it won't be on show.
Hints/tips please.

This is whats going in (not the dvd)

By putting it there, the heater is obsolete, yeah?
No hot or cold air from there anymore?
I was hoping ther'd be enough room where the MFD is to house it there and maybe modify the MFD surround a bit.
I'll have another look tomorra.
Looks like me cars gonna be off the road for a while
Ah well, no need to tax it then

Outside dimensions of cage are 18.5cm wide by 5.5cm high.
Depth of unit (if you need it- 18.5cm)
What you got in mind luv.
Might be able to do it myself if you let me know.
Any help is appreciated

Alright Claire,

I modified my mfd pod so I could fit my screen into where the air vents are. Its not a slide out screen but I had to raise the mfd pod to fit over it.

I'm happy with the result!
