Nice install though. Everything looks clean.....

honest opinion? im not feelin it. the screens just look off and out of place. it is a clean install tho. i plan on taking visor screens which are pretty thin and mounting them into the trunk lid and cover the brackets with trunk liner.

you can have them on tight hinges so they can move down, that would be hot and definatly better looking, i like ur installs they are very clean cut and look professional. but definatly think of relocating the screens to a different part of the trunk...

My New permanent Screen Install. Trunk does still shut easily and the screens still can come out by removing one screw.







By the way I know the car is dirty it is getting a bath today since it is finally sunny. Also since it is sunny those of you waiting for a sound clip of the greddy evo 2 will finally get one.

again, honest opinion. im not feeling this one either. im sorry. maybe it cus the color of the screen housing sticks out against the black trunk. try this when you have some time. the indentations in your trunk lid behind the screens. cut a opening in there. mount them there and cover the gaps with trunk lining. the way your set, it seems that if you close the trunk the screens are hanging sideways in the trunk. it is a clean install tho.

Hey, for shows, they're at eye level, they'll look brighter than they would down low. Big improvement IMO: )
