Well my friend tried to install a CarPC and ripped his dash
apart and then decided to put it on a stand still. He offered me some cash to help him build his CarPC and so I started his
project last week. Here is the pictures of the screen fabrication which took me one night
only. It was the first time I tried. More sanding was needed but I told
him to settle for this finish for now until we get the setup running.
Here's the screen taken apart from the bezel:

Laying out the bezel over this dash trim he picked out to fill in the
hole. (No OEM bezel to work with)
