Default Might try doing this install for this cheap

I found a cheap 7 inch monitor and dvd/cd/mp3 player here http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/2124 for only 200. I know its Legacy brand which probably isn't all that good but for 200 bucks you get a dvd player and lcd screen so i consider that a deal. My quesiton is, would that screen fit in the console where my current radio is now? Where would i put the dvd player (it would also serve as my cd player so i don't want it in the glove box or anything).

Actually im trying to say i can get BOTH for a TOTAL of 200 bucks. Thats a dvd/cd player AND a screen for 200 together. But anyway, what im trying to ask is what would be the easiest way to install a 7inch screen and cd player in my accord.

I'm almost tempted to pay you $200 to not put that junk in your car...

But if you really wanna go through with it, a flip-out 7" should fit in the console fine. A non-flipping regular 7" monitor will require you to do some fancy customizing. Here's someone with a 5.6" mounted in the console...

Depending on how much bigger your screen is, you might not be able to mount your deck underneath it. If not, you could mount it in the armrest.
