Oh do tell how you got such a perfect match.

03P5, I don't. If you look up Elemental's he has some bondo-ing photos. My problem is that I have to go over to my parents' house and borrow their clunker Mavica camera (ancient!) to snap photos. I need my own...

Well, I at first bought some chrome aluminum spray because the cap looked similar to the lilliput case, it wasn't. It was CHROME. So then I bought some duplicolor auto paint at Checkers called sand aluminum, much better.
The process included many light coats of grey primer, one coat of chrome aluminum, and a couple coats of sand aluminum. The final color matches the Lilliput case perfect. It is very close to the original color of the bezel too.

What are you using as a head unit for that monitor?

That's by far the cleanist install of an in dash LCD I've seen. Congrats.]

EDIT: What model of Liliput LCD is that, and how much trimming did you do behind it? Ebay for that?

My computer is my headunit. Don't you guys know that you can can get FM radio through computers? Just needs an addon card. In a bit I will be installing XM-pcr for satellite radio.
Here it is on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=3698&item=5100305161&rd=1

yes that was our original plan but I couldn't find an addon card I was happy with, that was WinXP compatible and it also required that you buy and set up an amplifier to power the speakers.

i do want to hear how yours is setup though

Captain, you need to head on over to mp3car.com and check out Frodoplayer. He is integrating radio and xm compatibility into the interface. He will also be giving it plugin support for programs such as Girder.

It's now for sale...http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123663814&highlight=lilliput

I took the easy way and installed.............

These are pretty expensive but I got lucky. I used to work at a car audio shop and purchased it directly from kenwood on accomodations (half price of whole sale = $800).
