Installing a separate LCD for DVD's
I have a 7.2" LCD monitor with all different mounting kits and I want to mount it just above the radio but still be removable easily.
1. Where is the best way to run a wire from the battery to the tv through the firewall and what size fuse would be appropriate?
2. What is the best way to mount an LCD assuming I don't want to drill holes in my dash if I can help it.
Post some pics of your installs too.

Triangle LCD's usually don't consume lots of power (ampere) with that being said look at the specs on the LCD, but what I am getting at is you can put an inline fuse and tap into the Cigarette lighter. Let me know if you need more help.

NO, you didn't mention an inverter. With that being said you will want to run 8 Awg wire. And if you look behind the brake pedal and down there is a spot you can drill to get out into the engine bay (Firewall). If you are worried about the LCD then you can go off of the Cigarette lighter.
