Default TV in A/V Console

I wasn't sure which forum to post this in so I decided to post it here. I plan on purchasing an audio video console for my 5th gen civic and then somehow putting a tv screen in it. I was wondering if anyone here has done the same thing. If you have, I would really appreciate it if you could tell me how you mounted it in there, the size of the screen you put in there, the brand and if its any good, and how u had it hooked up. Anybody that can help, thanks!

my buddy has that setup in his rex...he filled the whole with tinted plexi glass, and mounted the screen "floating" in the middle...he then put some blue neons behind it, and when you watch it at night it looks like it is floating in blue light...it is pretty damn sweet. Then he has a ps2 hooked up to it that is mounted behind the drivers seat.

I just mounted my TV in my dash

7 inch will fit in the console, but it will be a pain in the ass to see with the shifter sitting in front of it.

Actually, i think it may fit in there perfect and the visibility shouldn't be too bad, very much worth it i think. We'll see how it does.
