make sure you read everything about fiberglassing and maybe do a test or two on something junk just to make sure you get the hang of it. maybe get some pics up of your dash and the monitor and we could give you some suggestions

i just mounted mine in the glove box, and built a trim panel around it and carpeted it. didnt take that long, could have looked better but for the rush i was in i think i did fine.
