Wow Cedric!!! It looks great

Sorry for the size of the photos but no time to resize.

I made one for my GQ. The problem is the Madman cooks quite a bit in the sun and the screen goes dark, I made it to go over the air vent at the back and just switch it so the air blow into the pod and it works quite well.

That's very cool TijmenvdS. So far I haven't had any heat issues even when parked in direct sunlight. I think the vinyl and foam gives some insulation. I originally thought of just painting the fibreglass, but for exactly that reason I decided to rather upholster it.

The GQ dash is so much easier to work with than a GU, and the MDF works really well for your dash pod.
