One question I have is, if the screen is in position how do you use the heater control panel

[joshwyatt]

That's a very good point Jim, but if TVP did it, I'll have to do the same 
It's not ideal, but I'm going to make it as authentic as possible. But, I may use some creative licence and see if I can position it in a slightly better place.

There are plenty of 7" monitors out there for next to sod all money wise.
Granted most are "cheap chinese crap", but they have all the inputs you need and do the job very well for the money you pay.

In this case KW...whichever is the cheapest wins. I am struggling in finding one's that look similair to the one posted by Welung666. I can only find it in the USA. Anything that looks similair to that, or the one in the original police Omega will be ideal. I'm looking on ebay as I presumed that would be the most likely place but don't appear to be having much luck so far.

You push the button on the head unit that instructs the screen to retract.

What do you call expensive Josh?

That's a good question, my budget for the screen would ideally be around £100 or less. The total cost of the whole project is likely going to be around £1800. So any savings on small things like the screen will all help out.

What do you mean by "it's not practical"?
If you can afford to take your eyes off the road for the time it takes to change radio stations, jump a track on the CD (or even change the CD), then pushing a button to momentarily retract the screen is no different.

Plenty of them on fleabay Josh, and invariably they offer more inputs than the all in one's.

Those are all 16:9 widescreen, Josh is after the non-widescreen variety I think.

i have a sneaking feeling i have seen that screen somehwhere before! i am upgrading to touch screen anpr soon, so this one will be vailable mate.
(ps it is def the same one)


p.s,  i sold my vascar and provida camera to alan for his covert vectra, but built my own replica provida camera for little money.  when you are next down, i will make one for you chap.
the size of the housing is near identicle, and no one is going to notice if you have a £50 camera, or a £500 camera, long as they look about right.
