I can get a good deal on a 10.4 touchscreen vga monitor but am hesitant due to the size. The stock opening on the dash is about 8.25" W x 4.5" H and the screen dimensions of the screen i'm looking at is 8.31" W x 6.24" H. The width is fine but the height is almost 2 inches more than the opening.

 

that means it doesn't fit, who would have guessed? you can cut it and fiberglass a new one.

 

Westcost customs XB has a 10" in the dash looks good. Cant find the link tho.

 

are you talking about the one on pimp my ride? if so that was cut and redone, fiberglass I think, then painted red

 

Wow, perceptive... I know it doesn't fit, I was asking if anyone had done it.

 

then yea they did it on pimp my ride

 

optimum is 9" widescreen. i have one and it fits perfectly with no cutting or refiberglassing.

 

What model screen do you have?

 

try looking into a company called accelvision, they have excellent monitors, similar to Alpine, but half the price.

 

I don't know what brand of 9" he used, but I used a ICON 9" screen in mine.

 

looks good

 

Corners of screen are cut off the best fit in stock locatin is a 8".
And as far as the car on pimp my ride no not that one. The shop had or has there own
XB that had a nice 10.4 in dash.
