Default Screen install question. Please help.

I just bought a 7" screen for my 1994 civic coupe. I was wondering if anyone had any idea of where I should install it or could put up a post of pictures of how other people installed theirs. I was thinking of fiberglassing a mount for it where the cigarette lighter/cup holders were and angle it a little upwards. ANY ideas or PICTURES would help!

Thanks!

i have this pic, it looks really good where it is molded under the deck, but in this pic it looks like it comes out to much, he might hit it with the shifter..but thats a good spot

The first suggestion is good, but yeah, watch for the shifter. You could put it straight in the dash, on the passenger side, that'd be nice. Just watch out, i don't think its legal to watch stuff while your moving, but i could be wrong. Or, if you really wanted, put a connect onto the side of area where the shifter is, so it'd be like in front of the bottom of the passenger seat (a pic would help), then mount it on a swivel right there, so it could go sideways and tilt, then run the wires through that pipe. (i'll post a pic of where i mean using that other guy's pic.

relocate the radio and climate controlls to where that dude has his TV.....then make a custom enclosure for the TV where the headunit used to be.
