The Zeitronix LCD board was mounted behind carbon fiber plate. We sent him a new LCD overlay to be placed over the carbon fiber.

So far, I pulled the display apart and separated the main circuit for the lcd circuit board. Then I soldiered wires to the pins where the two boards connect so I can mount the main board remote from the lcd.
Next, I took apart the dash and removed the clock. The clock is held on by two tabs. These tabs are then cut off to make room for the lcd. Everything on the black plastic vent piece is removed (vents, the flaps, hazard button). You end up with the vent piece as a single piece of plastic. Then you have to do some slight trimming of the back of the vent piece to make room for the lcd.
This is the farthest i have gotten so far. By doing this, you will lose the ability to open and close you vents because there isn't enough room for the open/close mechanism and the lcd ( so it's always open now).
The lcd screen is too big to fit in the clock position but the part you actually read is a perfect fit in the hole.
I wish i had some pictures. This all probably sounds pretty confusing. I'll try to get some if there is enough interest ( i have to learn how to post pic again...lol) |
you got some brass ones to pull that display apart like that  please post some pics and more guidance this has sticky written all over it

I may have to get another overlay myself then as I want to do this. I'll just have to suss out how to actually attach the LCD to the carbon fibre.

The LCD has 4 holes. If you add four standoffs with small machine screws to the plate you can attach it to the back of the carbon fiber plate.
Take ESD precautions when playing with naked electronics.
