some of you may remember that i had bonnet vents that i removed using a hammer and chisel as i wanted to replace the fibreglass vents with carbon fibre looking plastic ones. well...ive only gone and done it again but ths time with the dash pod.

after reading lennys awesome guide i bonded my dash pod/trim thinking it'lll never be removed so bond it down. well, last night i took it off and replaced my current 2 x 52mm gauge set up and replaced it with the dash top pocket/cubby. I have then got a Samsung Media Player 5" screen and placed that into the pocket but mounted it so that it sits upright and can be removed (held by velcro). i can also place my satnav there if required but not both at the same time.

Hi Paul

just using a standard car charger, I will be adding a cig lighter socket into the dash pocket so that i dont have wires everywhere.

The samsung media player hides flat in the pocket and you cant tell it was there!

Cool , now your next step is to motorize it :)

You want something like cheeky bikers use to fold their reg plates up when they pass cameras.

Press the button and the screen pops up, press it again and it drops.
