Post by: Foo on August 11, 2012, 02:05:33 PM

As the title says, are there any particular brands, that have a good mounting base, that will with stand the rigors of a truck? ???

Going into a Western Star 4900 series. ;D

Well you go the disposable route and get Kogan as a lot do and it will only cost you $100. Going a bit further upmarket, we just bought a 22" TEAC combo unit with USB PVR and DVD which has very low power draw and bought a socket from Jaycar and made up a 12 volt lead.  Camec have a more expensive TV which is meant to have a coated circuit board for marine and automotive use.
