im throwing around the idea of putting an NES/PS2/XBOX/PC into my car, but i need an LCD to go with it (obviously) i want at least 8 inches, if not 10 or more, but i dont want to spend over 300$. anybody have any suggestions? im probobly going to mount it on the roof, or the tailgate so it can flip down when the back is open

YOu will find that with cheap screens, you will not get great performance, quality, or a long life out of them. Better off to spend more and get better quality.

Hey man take my word for it...if you want an 8" screen for your games n movies rather than just show....def save a lil more...450 isnt much more than 300 and youll get a much better tv.

I kinda thought this feature was cool but it may be on expensive screens only, its called anti-glare so when the sun hits, it doesn't fade out the picture,

When buying an LCD, just check out the options
make sure its capible of doing everything you want out of it, before buying it

May I recommend a penis pump; those pills they advertise on the pr0n channels don't work, or so I've heard.

I'm not the expert on LCD's, but these guys know a lot more than I do: www.mp3car.com
You could probably get a datalux 10.4" LCD, but the brightness probably isn't enough for what you're looking for. www.digitalww.com has great screens, but if you're looking for >8", you might want to get in touch with Armen, and see what he can find for you. Just look around in the LCD/Display forum, and you should find everything you need. If you can't, just register and ask, but they blast newbies a lot for asking questions they've covered before, so just search first.
Here's a couple of sites to look at:
www.digitalww.com
www.dscustoms.com
www.earthlcd.com
