Is there any way you can put one on each side of the Subwoofer enclosure. Maybe in the trunk somewhere. some closeout panels on each side (if you dont already have any. never seen the trunk) if not maybe the headrests of your racing seats.

See i have a total of 15 screens, I already have 2 screens in the back of the racing seats, an indash, sunvisors, flip down from roof, under engine bay, rear deck, in trunk, and some other areas, keep in mind this is a show car so it has to be creative places.

the gas door. either on the inside and once it opens you see it and mold one in over the airbag cover on the passenger side angled towards the driver and use it as an instrument panel type set up.

maybe mold em in to your Spoiler or in your front bumper where your charge pipes are on each side.

fiberglass them in or put them in the rear side windows (so you an see them from the outside), if you have tented windows you will only see them when they are on.

if she did that should COULD have squares cut in the tint. i dont think youl notice as long as the screen is against the window. but thats a good idea.

Some good ideas, but keep in mind that I am not cutting into anything that has been already fiberglassed and painted. So no front bumper, no spoiler, not on the front dash or doors. I am not looking to go back and totally redo things just for some Tvs. As for the side windows we thought of that and it wont work not with the type of screens I have left to install.

Well keeo them coming, something has to be a perfect fit

Sorry can't do that either, these are sponsorship products and I am under contract.

how about installing them as your sideview mirrors?????




Re: I need Ideas

^^^ lets hope she trailors it then lol i dont know what you do to get the car to the show.

to bad you dont want to cut into anything ... idk how wide it is but you ahve the ram air hood. That scoop in the hood looks to be about 8 inch wide? idk ive never seen on in person. if it was that wide you could fabricate something so one of the monitors pulls a flip up head unit style. the screen is facing the hood and moves in and out of the scoop. then its flips up. that way if you drive you can still saave it but sealign the scoop opening with the top of the monitor.

or the other places for them or places i would put them would be on the underside of the trunk lid. It narodwed it down a bit when you said no cutting anything.

yeah. not a bad idea. but yes. its a full show car. as stated above. so i think the mirror thing would work. she would have to fiberglass a little bit tho. so i dunno

I would talk to whoever gives you your sponsorship and tell them you don't need anymore screens.

lol yeah right, they give me product and I install it thats what a sponsorship is. I have to have as much product as possible so people see it and look into their products as well. Plus this is a show car that competes on the NCCA circuit so the more screens the better, I just need to get creative.

I know what sponsorship is, it was a joke.


If you want us to help, pictures might be a good thing so we can see where you already have screens.

i dunno, if i saw 15 LCD's in one car, i think it would look like @!#$.

not bad mouthing your car or anything because i havent seen it and for all i know it could look really good.

but 15 LCD's???!!?? whats the bloody point? i understand it is a show car, but im all for one that making the car look different, but at the same time a bit of factory appeal to it, like getting people to say that your car is the way it should have come from the factory.

i dunno, i think the less holes you have to put in a car, the better... but thats just my 2...

and AGAIN, i was not bad mouthing your car because i havent seen it.



Injection is nice but id rather be BLOWN!

Here is a link to my website,

www.cardomain.com/ride/325547

Trust me my car is far from being tacky, its a very highly modified yet clena car. I like things to flow, I just don't have LCDs everywhere. And obviously you have never seen my car because if you did you would know that this isn't a car that is driven daily and taken to shows on the weekends, this car has been featured in several National Magazines and has many National Sponsors and competes all over the Country and Canada. Just check out the webstie so you can get a better idea to what my car looks like.

And
Cavi in KC: check out the above website address for pics.
