    Default In dash monitor

    Has anyone put an in-dash monitor into their e34? I really want to put a computer into my car, but im strugling with how to mount the monitor. And i dont car too much for the flip out displays. I was thinking of moving some of the hvac controls to below the ashtray. Any bright ideas or pictures or anything?

    I have seen a couple of people that have put five inch monitors below the climate control. They take out the ashtray and mount the monitor there. That is what I was thinking of doing because I don't like flip out monitors either.
