I traded the car in on a new Dodge Magnum. It took me all night to remove my carputer before trading it in. Now i have to figure out how to get it into the new car.

Hey. Im looking at putting a Carputer in my galant, I am looking at taking that laptop rout, but leave it dedicated. My problem is the monitor. I cant exactly mount it in my dash if you know what the new interiors look like, or if you take a few looks at my interior. Did you happen to come across any mountable LCD mounts or have any thoughts reguarding my monitor install.
