u have a sun roof and u want a flip town tv? u want it to flip down the people in the rear can watch it right? cause it wont go any further foreward

u also have to remember the sun roof and the cover slide back above the rear seats..so any attatchment things u use to hold the tv are gunna have to really really thin...and the wires might be a kinda pain to run but i know its possible..just gunna be hard

oh also im not sure for ur year ex but i know some years u have to brake all the clips that hold the head liner on and replace them..just something to take into account
 






like this?

no problem with installing it behind the sunroof. its not hard to install them, so long as your capable of removing your headliner and can use a drill. jigsaw, and your head.

of course it will be right in front of the eyes of the rear passengers since there isn't that much room behind the sunroof in an x

whose truck is that expo?
 






its a customers of a friends.

thats an 11" myron and davis screen, very nice one too.
 






I drool over any car with 3 fullsize DIN slots.. Ooh the potential. :) Got any more pics of that guy's setup handy? Did he relocate the climate controls, or are my eyes just blurred from football and beer this weekend? :D
 






yeah, the climate stuff was moved slightly... tons of work for a stock look- that vent you see there isn't in its factory location.

i can get some more pics later when i get a chance
 






its not hard at. i actually have a 13.4" flidown in my 00 eddie bauer. (ill post pics later) i just removed the rubber trim around the sunroof (from the inside) slid a piece of plywood ($3.00 from home depot, same width of the X for additions flipdowns) and drilled the sucker in. not promoting or anything but check out caraudiodeals.com and allaudioexpo.com for great prices. they are one of the few legit sites out there for you car a/v needs
