computer monitor

[escoson]

hey guys i got a question for the electronic enthusiasts on here. if i buy a computer monitor, lets say a 18" flat panel/screen with tv in/out, could i hook it up in my car like other tvs sold for the automobiles?



edit....


all i would need is a vga to svidoe/rca adapter cable rite?

you would need a dc to ac converter as well unless it can be run on 12vdc power. oh, and some place to mount it!

you can get dc to ac converter from best buy,, the good one would run around 45 to 50 bucks...

I saw a kid do that in his prelude once and let me tell you the idea is cool but it looks dumb as shit in reality. There is almost no way to get a real clean custom mounting anywhere and it takes up a hell of a lot more space than you would think.... :twisted:

I dunno...Balln8G did something like this to his whip and posted pics of it. Do a search to pull it up.

this is where the fiberglassing comes in. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif its going in the trunk lid.

trunk lid?!?!?!?!?

[TexasMade]

ya in the trunk.

alot of ppl here in my area put screens in there trunks. ride down the street, pop the trunk and let everyone else around you watch alittle tv. just another way to waste money and flaunt it. it looks pretty good if you have a nice setup in the trunk with a system and maybe some neons goin.

if thats what your planning on doing (pop trunk) let me know. i have a friend that has a set of good pumps for sale. there high pressure pumps not like the little ones that slowly open and close the trunk. these will have your trunk wavein and clappin the everyone behind ya. make sure to put 2 pumps...1 on each side of the trunk or after awhile your trunk will sit slanted due to all the weight being pushed up by one pump on only one side of the trunk. looks crappy...trust me.

Ah yes... the trunk lid is a nice place for a screen (or 3)...

NICE!!

i like the..."or 3". the more the better.

part of me thinks that's pretty cool, especially being able to open and close the trunk from the inside and the other part of me thinks that's the dumbest fucking waste of money on the planet. :wink:
