Does anyone have a flip down LCD with a sunroof? I just pulled out my roof liner etc but looking at the centre light and thinking of either modifying it or buying a roof mounted lcd screen problem is.... the 10.5" = 250mm all over gap between windscreen and sunroof edge. Looking on ebay a 8.9" screen requires about 275mm they seem to be smallest and cheapest 1" or 25mmish too long anyone got perhaps a 7" installed up there.

Now a 8.9 inch might fit if cut gutted glassed up etc mainly removing or relocating the light panel and tidied it up to look like something made in a factory. Not sure if keen to go to those efforts but then again i could do it in a day but too many other projects. This is more of a something to look at fiero related late at night thinking what can can't be done thing to do not hell bent on idea.

I was going the same route as you by putting a 14" screen in.
Though it looked very good, It caused a HUGE blind spot!!!! Like I could not see anything around the pass. front.
I ended up with a 4" screen in the mirror, MUCH better! So when off, the screen turns into a rear view mirror. double duty!!
sorry no pics as of yet....

I don't think you would want to be driving with a 14" flip down screen in plain view of the driver...unless you wanted a massive ticket.

I have 7" screens in my visors. They work great and I can flip them out of the way when driving.

I found you can get the rearview mirrors for about $100 delivered. I'd really prefer wireless on this as it is on the windscreen
I could do with new visors and have seen those for about $100 ea also before. Most have dvd players id just want screens.
I had an interest in mainly the flip down as i thought i could replace the light same time but havent done anything with deck yet.

You can get them with just screens too

yeah JScott has some nice ones ( for his kid to play video games on at the shows )lol

I guess it all comes down to what you expect to view with the screen. Like a movie or video, I would mount a nice size screen in the dash area. I am using mine for the cameras front and rear. I just needed to easily view it WHILE DRIVING. Being a rear view mirror it fit the bill very well! If I was to sit,PARKED, then yeah I would get a larger screen so I could watch it easier.

The flip down has the "wow" factor, but it stills depends on your viewing pleasure!

I have even heard of people buying an old video game console that has a screen in it and tearing it apart for just the screen.

Keep looking , you will find a nice set up that will work for ya!!

I found a few that will fit just got to decide what i want.

I have a couple of those (PS1s) but it's more trouble than it's worth to me.

Enjoy....just browse around for all your needs

I assume you had to lose the original center console as i am doing a bit of measuring right now.
Seems stock length on visors is 390mm the fieros measure that to the end of rod (so wont fit keeping console without mods)

I found a 9 inch screen on a flip down center console 308mm x 172 it will fit but not with sun visors because it is so wide.

Basically you can't have a flip down center screen with a sunroof with stock visors as are too long wondering about shortening mine as option. what cars have either short visors or what cars have small roof consoles to use a roof screen.
