    Default Are these "bad" locations for concealed display?

    Say on top of the dashboard or above the instrument cluster hood?

    Pictures always help, but it should be in your field of a vision, and its helpful to be out of view of other motorists.

    When I get mine, it will be in the gauge cluster set far back so in my line of site but not easily seen from outside the car.

    I had only a few options with my CD placement, I went with a mount on the dash backed up to the A-pillar. It's just in the right place for me. If I could have recessed it into the dash somewhere I would have.

    Since I took this picture I have relocated it about 3 inches to the left and have faced it towards myslef better. It never gets glare, especialy with my door windows tinted 20%.

    Mine is attached with double sided tape in a position that, on your vehicle, would be just above your speedometer under the instrument panel hood. BTW, my Garmin Nuvi is mounted about where your concealed display is located.

    I suppose you don't put the CD away since you mount it with double sided tape. Aren't you risking a break in when you car is unattended?
