Found a good use for the tissue box!

First of all, AWESOME!! You totally stole my idea from a couple of years ago. LOL, only instead of a back monitor, I wanted (WANT) to install a screen where, 1) I can mirror my smart phone, 2) connect it to my DVD system. It's relatively easy to get the parts together and such, but I want mine to "tilt" (from top so one can improve the viewing angle). I'm sure there is SOMETHING I can do without resorting to completely redoing the lower console with fiber glass, etc, I just haven't figured it out yet.

Great Job!

angle is too low, but i do wish it was half way on top of the trim near the cup holders.

The (stock) angle of the ashtray is very weird, but the OP made it better, still it's sits very low. This is why I was thinking of putting the monitor on "position hinges" so the angle is adjustable. I really want to stay away from what the OP did (totally modded it with fiberglass) but totally respect what he did. I wish I had those skills.

Cool idea!

I just recently found out that it is a great place for a small switch panel too!

Easy mod

Thanks for the compliments..and that is also a great spot for the switches. I'm almost out of room. I have front, rear lights,and camera all to switches,ran to a superset fuse box under the hood. I'm in no way a expert with fiberglass.. my suspension is getting upgraded this weekend and plate bumper and sliders being built as we speak.
