Car LCD with OHP?

Lots of people have used car LCDs for projectors. They generally get a 7" Lilliput, because they are easy to take apart. Some LCDs have parts glued together, so it can be impossible to dissassemble them to remove the backlight. If you can get it apart without breaking it, then you could use it on an OHP.

I doubt the resolution number quoted in the eBay ad. Sellers of car LCDs usually count each dot as a pixel, even though you need a red dot, a green dot, and a blue dot to make up each full-color pixel. So that 1034 is probably 1/3 that. But it looks like a 16:9 format display. So that doesn't seem right either. Maybe the picture is BS, too! Maybe your friend's cousin could measure the horizontal & vertical size of the image for you?

Car LCDs are generally not high res displays, since the users would not be able to see more pixels on a tiny display.
