Yes, it is a car pc install.

I had to chop the top area of the original din and a half area in order to fit the 4.5" tall screen. I managed to keep the sides as the visible area of the screen including the verticle line up of buttons in the original horizontal spacing. Then I had to relocate my deck down below to an unused area.

ORIGINAL


The Area I had to work with


The Idea I had of placement I had in mind.


After a couple cuts


I chose not to mount the screen flush for security sakes as well as sun glare, so I also had to learn to fibreglass to fill in the once inch depth I decided to mount it at.
