tv in 5th gen

im was doing a little brain storming today and was wodering if it was possible to move an aftermarket single din hu to where the ash tray is and put one of the microvision tv's in the spot where the hu originally would be... let me know if anyone has done this or if it is even possible...

haha......ure both right it was my INCREDIBLY strong hands

yea but with all the dremelling necessary behind the ashtray, as well as the fact that the 5th gen dash is tapered, therefore the HU barely fits and the edges are weak...definitely not worth it

yeah i thought about doing that to but with the 6 speed the shifter is so tall that it gets in the way and no one will be able to see the tv...
