#2960, "Custom TV Install"




          

Knowing this isn't really an audio question...

I went to a show-car show like a month ago, and I saw this in few magazines...
The TVs were mounted in the sun visor (just incase if people don't know what it is, its the thing you flip down so the sun won't get in your eyes)..
Would it be hard to do that?
Where would the wires go through?
Do you think I should just take out the visors, and get a flip down screen instead?

Thanks

it has been done before.. look down.. hehe.. it is fairly simple to do.. wires run through the pillar on the side and up under the headliner.. from there it depends on where you mount your video source...


^^what once was^^


^^what is now.. and permanently^^

The thing is..

How far out does it come?
Considering Car TV's are like 1/2" or more thick...

Also, did you have ti cut the farbic in thhe visors?

And, do you have any close-up pics of this?

What kind of TV's did you use?

How much did those TV's cost?

Thanks

I've got a 6" screen in each of my visors. The thickness depends on the screen, my visors had to be filled slightly with a hard foam so they would be flush. The wires are run down behind the A-Pillar so everything is hidden. If you do it right it'll look very clean and professional.
