I think the shifter would get in the way of the TV if you put it in the cd-cassette holder.. since it would be in the park position, unless you have a standard...but I dont know. I think it would be best to get one of those ones that slides out of the actual stereo... that way its hidden and closer to eye level....being too low(as in the cd cassette holder) it might distort the colors on the plasma monitor because the angle your looking at it would be kinda funny... thats just my take on it though, Ive never tried to install one before so I may be completely wrong

My brother took out his passenger side airbag and mounted his tv monitor there. He took darkly tinted plexiglass and filled in around it following the dashes curves. Made for a pretty cool interior mod.

Im sorry but Axeman your bro isn't too smart...There are a thousand better places to put a lcd than where the airbag is! Could you imagine having to tell your girlfriends parents (or best friend/whoever happens to be riding with you) that youre sorry but their kid died because you thought you'd be cool and replace an item that was designed into the car as a safety measurement not to even mention that it is ILLEGAL! If he gets into a wreck and hurts someone then he came be sued too. Tell him to be smart and find a different place it.
