Single din with motorized screen

Post by cibon1 »

I'm restoring a 69 spider that has the standard dash with the extended " pad" above the radio wich extends from driver to passenger driver side. Is there a particular brand of stereo that will clear this when open that I can purchase and install? Thanks. Gregory

don't they have ones that come out and down instead of up .... thought my friend had one like that because he had the same issue (not a fiat)

I've often wondered if something like this would work.

Not motorized, but hangs down a little and looks large enough to use... I would fear a motorized screen would interfere with gearbox movement potentially.... and if you tilted the screen would definitely get in the way....

Edit: this one I found just typing in the search "single din touch screen"
