Hey guys.
Im just wondering wether a 7" touch screen will fit in this section.
I am NOT talking about a Flip out monitor, i am talking about a touch screen unit. If you remove the standard headunit/tray and lighter, is there enough room to fit one in?
And if by chance, if there are any pics of this PLEASE post them up.
Thanks.

not 100% sure bout 7 inch... but i know double din will fit for sure
if the 7 inch deck/screen is double din then no worries
i have double din in mine with a little fibreglass mod on original dash

found this car on ebay just before, and looks like he has done pretty much what you are asking, mounting it shoulnd't be to hard really, just need to cut out some parts

I have my 7" screen sitting inside where the original tape deck sits. I had to take the dimister control button off otherwise it would hit that but I don't use it anyways. but otherwise it's fine. I'll get some pics up later on if you like.

Yeah mate if you could throw some pics up that would be a huge help. I've got a double din 6.5" screen but just seeing if 7" like most are do fit in there.
Cheers for the link K3GGY.

you sure he meant a permanent 7" i thought he was talking about a fold out. I never got around to posting a pic of mine, I'll throw one up 2moro. It's a 7" touch screen

10-06-09, 17:50 GMT+10#13 yea i had trouble with my fold out but with a small amount of modification its now in place and nice (build still underway however... gotta get off me ass)
but ive seen some good 7-9inch screen conversions for the center console. a few are very custom though...
of ur just going to remove the head unit and ash tray just give it a measure to get a rough idea. if ur way off then u clearly have no chance but if its close. it can be modified.
