Re: Custom dash with screen-GP (MEATHOUSE)
Guys, I dropped off my console at the shop Sunday and now they are just waiting for the monitor to come in to get the dimensions. I should have some pics up by mid-week. Meathouse will probably have his done sooner than that but we will definitely have the pics up so you guys can check them out.

PICS ARE IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!
I REPEAT... PICS ARE IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry about the delay, they were at the painter for longer than expected, but man was it worth the wait, it is flawless. This paint job puts any job i have ever seen to shame. It is 100% flawless!! Simply incredible. Tomorrow by sat night this proj will be done, and i will have pics of it actually in the car, but for now, enjoy....

Re: Custom dash with screen-GP (knewblewkorvette)
Damn man...that looks awesome! How much do you think the total cost would be for the dash itself if I was to send mine in...and then the cost of the screen....and how much time do you think it would take them to make now that it has a mold? I could probably just have it painted here unless they have a good deal on that too out in your parts. Just tryin to get some idea of how much the whole thing would run me...so I can know if I want to put a screen in first or if I'd want to put in a sub and amp first. Thanks for the kick butt pics! - Joe

Does this price include the screen?
The DIN opening, is it set to attached the radio cage, or does the radio still get mounted to the inner frame of the dash?

Re: Custom dash with screen-GP (msuc5vette)
The cost of the screen that is shown in the pics is $469. It is a 8.4" accellevsion monitor. Looks :cool: Meathouse reffered me to this website http://www.nexxon.com. They seemed to have the cheapest prices.

Re: Custom dash with screen-GP (blk98vette)
Very anxious to see this mounted in your car. I was holding off on the audio mods until my body changes were done, but this may be too hard to resist. I'll see if someone local can do the same thing, but if not...I'm sending my console to the Car Toys guys!

Re: Custom dash with screen-GP (blk98vette)
If I was to get this system...I'd check around for prices. Mainly I'd just want DVD though, it would be nice to have some kinda cool car scene playing with no sound while I listened to music. Eventhough its illegal in California...but then again...what ISNT illegal in California?
