    roof mount lcd

    i was wondering how would some one go about mounting a tv on our headliner?
    like if some one wanted to do a 20 in tv install in there roof
    i have looked at the flip down but it makes me think of a soccer mom van

    i have searched and searched but i dont know the key words that would bring up what i am looking for.
    i think i would need mdf wood and fit it into the roof then drill from the outside in and shave off the screw and sand the head down and bondo the drill points

    so if some one can point me in the right direction please do thanks

    I don't know if there would be enough space between the roof and head liner. If you had one from a vehicle with a sunroof, there would be a lot more room, but also a large hole to deal with. Also keep in mind that the headliner insulates the interior from heat. It gets hot as hell between it and the roof. If you did this you would need to insulate around the screen and provide some sort of ventilation.

    Re: roof mount lcd

    ok
    i hate to have both these threads opend at the same time so maybe a mod can conjoin them for me
    but i was thinking maybe a build a box of sorts and then if i can find fans that are short ill drill a rectangel hole and then put alot of fans only thing that i see wrong is an exhust vent ,
    but then i was thinking that once i mount the box to the roof i would be able to bondo and fiberglass the mount to the headliner then get rid of the vynal and put something more breathable on there or possiable a nice pic
    but i donno this is still all theroraticall as of right now

    Its definatly doable, it just depends how skilled you are. Someone could probably explain to you how to do it but it will be nearly impossible for you to do it just based on what someone say unless you have customizing and fabricating skills. And make sure your car is in 100% perfect running condition before you start things like that because you will be really pissed if you do custom work and the motor or trans blows.
