Pretty nifty. It will look :ghey: if it is not mounted IN the dash instead of sitting on top.

Just be easier to put a laptop on the seat next to you and just run a wire from the audio output to the audio input on the head unit.

I've been considering doing this for a while now. I've already got a very small/compact laptop with XP that I'm going to use but I'm waiting to purchase a deck first with aux inputs before I buy my touchscreen monitor.
