I dont see why this wont work but seems too simple..? any help would be greatly appreciated Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/45248-7-vga-screen-and-icc-relocation/page/4/#findComment-1309228 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanting to somehow hook up a 7" screen down in the cigarette space below the icc. Only problem I would have is the amount of room between the gear knob and the screen (manual car). I could see me putting my knuckles thru the screen when selecting 1st, 3rd and 5th lol.

I dont see why this wont work but seems too simple..? any help would be greatly appreciated you wont be able to fit a full double din head unit down the bottom (well not without cutting some things out)if you see my first image, I did have a 7 inch touch screen down the bottom for a while but it was very awkward to use.

Just wanted something to replace the parrot system I got now. Are you saying they wont fit because they go too far back into the dash? This sux lol! No easy way to put a screen in these cars.

Looks pretty good, but almost looks oversized in a way, lol. I will be hooking myself up with one of these. Had internet capabilities, full bluetooth phone calling and music playing etc. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/45248-7-vga-screen-and-icc-relocation/page/4/#findComment-1344055 Share on other sites More sharing options...
