o man sweet mold job!!!!!! my only issue would be the bondo...
hopefully it doesnt crack over all the touchen and vibration...
i prefere liquid plastic. used the stuff to mold my trucks dash for a screen and stuff works great! no cracking after all the bass, vibration heat over time.... my only problem was the rest of the textured trim panel i didnt sand smooth bubbled up the paint after about a year.

if interested...
tho i got one question......... are those controls in the monitor trim panel and you just molded that into the panel? or where those a seperate panel you molded in thier?
either way that looks realy nice!!!!!!!
ive thought about molding my dash with something like that but i think ill just take it easy and buy a nice double din screen/dvd unit.... and the best part it just bolts in to my civic.LOL
downfall is the cost
BUT i can dream for now

monitor is from ebay its a lilliput 7" double din touchscreen and it won't crack if done properly..... i spent about a week just bondoing and sanding it to make it look like it does now....and the buttons are a part of the monitor bezel i mounted in there....it did cost quite a bit but i am loving every bit of it.....DIY is coming i just need to find the time
