8" touchscreen???

Getting this double din, hopefully in a week or week and a half.

Trying to figure out if an 8" touchscreen by lilliput will fit there. I am building a pc for my evo. Anyone ever try this? I see alot of people using 7" screens, the bigger the better for me though.

I hope it does... I'm planning on doing the same thing shortly with this screen: http://www.gooddeals18.com/c=GLtP3ma...reen__VGA.html which supposedly has a Samsung panel in it.

Yeah, that would be nice if a pro shop actually starts making them in bulk again. The price of the Orbital was never attractive though. I'm sure that's why they stopped selling them.

Thanks asplodzor. Great info!


Well I ordered one of these because I cannot find them on mp3car.com anymore!! I hope it's going to fit close to perfect when I separate the screen/electronics from the frame it's in!

Good to hear. How did you end up mounting it? Could you post a picture of the finished product?
