Looks good coudl you take couple of pictures from the rear of the unit how it sits in the dash. Came across few pots early attempts people cut into the dash but seems tweaking the display casing all is needed.

Someone in US has made a custom housing for it now that woudl be useful.Just curious how tidy it is when looking from outside through windscreen.

By what I've been reading cutting the casing works much better!

However the view from the rear is not a pretty look!

Same here , came across one post where someone has had a insert made which cover sits perfectly now this woudl be ideal. Shame the maker has not thought of selling the setup and just made a one off

Crumbs - how much bigger is it? I'm struggling to discern the difference between yours and the standard Fxx NBT screen.

Are you watching TV in the first pic? How do you do that if so?
