nice video, the touch screen came apart very easy...please send me any links you ave for the new screen, i am sure i read some where, may be by "bbs spy" a box that will take cam bus commands and then send out ibus commands, this was for the switches on the 2010 steering wheel.. is that the same little box you have..i would love to get my venture cam working...

Hi Dave

This is the screen i am look at getting

http://www.carcomputer.co.uk/shop/monitors...en-monitor

I am taking to the company to try and get a better price, after searching the net for ages this seems the best screen available (available in the UK anyway....i hope!) loads of people have recommended it to me. Its LED backlit, 600nits, transflective sunlight readable coating.

Hi Dave, the ad looks ok but im not 100% sure that is genuine as i too looked at this monitor but the cheapest place i could find it with the transflective and optically bonded was here http://www.mo-co-so.com/7-Transflective-Op...-tfe-3.htm but when i looked into the shipping from the USA the postage was quite alot but the real problem came with the import tax that would be applied as the value of the unit is over £50. It is a great screen and it was my first choice but I could not find anywhere in the UK that could supply the unit. The Inelmatic screen has come highly recommended from people on mp3car.com and in fact in all ways its a higher spec screen (apart from the HDMI connection) the liliput screen is only 450nits and the Inelmatic is 600nits so its a much brighter screen and the Inelmatic comes with a built in power regulator which will protect the screen from very low and very high voltage spikes.

hi dave

got my car back today heres the pics of my screen against the other foundry finish

Click image to enlarge

There is a slight colour difference as you can see in the pictures but i think because the screen is above the air vents and apart from the other foundry finish so it should look ok
