After seeing Tilly's center console, the creative juices are flowing again. I'm trying to remain disciplined and get the supercharger done first, but I'm starting some designs......

For those of you that have large screens in the A/C panel (permanent mount or flip up double din radio types), do you have a problem with them washing out in the sunshine? I keep a netbook on top of the dash when I'm tuning for EFI and it gets totally useless in the sunshine. Granted, it's higher up and more exposed, but I'm wondering if the same problem exists with the video screens that are built in. Do they angle down at all to prevent this?

Any pictures of your screen-in-dash would be appreciated as well as any brand/models, especially for touch screen type devices.

Thanks.

I bought a flip down 1 DIN radio for 6599 but, I get a lot of glare on the touch screen in my Grand Caravan so I decided, (for the moment) to enjoy the stock Craig as is. (I can see it's buttons no matter what).

EDIT: Granted the touch screen radio in my van looks like a pimple about to Erupt on the dash...
