thanks for the offer Spadival. i have bought the inverter few days back. the lcd display 7'' wide screen of necvox FD-7569(Rs5200) i bought yesterday is also mounted in dashboard. got a beige coloured one, so its going prety well with the center console. had to cout off the bottom plastic strip and trim the top a llittle to get it centered and keep AC controls clear. happy with its finish of installation.
cpu seems to have a problem and cant figure it out. works fine when re-tested in home but in car when inverter is powered up the cpu fan starts, and there is no video output, power led remains on. will work on it after a ew days due to house work. dont know if this has to do with isolation of dc ground and ac ground.
