    I have been wondering about a unit with a drop down screen like this one

    7" Single 1 DIN IN Dash Touch Screen CAR CD DVD Player Stereo Radio Bluetooth TV | eBay

    Item #231155926918

    No steering wheel controls though.

    One the last one I installed the screen came upwards which meant the unit itself had to sit further forward than the original so it could angle right up

    I think I'll be going for a flip-up one, and have it sitting out. I'm not real fond of the flip-down offerings available.

    Two camera inputs are required, one for forwards, one for reversing. I definitely want TV/DVD/Satnav/bluetooth audio.

    There are juiced up versions of the drop down as well

    There are also small screen single din units appearing now some have video out

    I was thinking a 7" tablet could be mounted to the right of the clock and fed from the video out maybe

    Hrm. I wonder if these things are available with digital TV tuners. Otherwise they're not going to be much good.

    If you want to watch TV it could be a problem

    I am pretty sure I have seen them with DTV or at least an add-on gizmo, just more bucks involved

    Also neither of these units have steering wheel controls

    The one you posted is a definite frontrunner.

    If it has to sit out a little further, so be it. Small price to pay for having everything I want.

    I made a packer for each side of unit behind blanking plugs drilled to same pattern of plug pins so they can go back on top to finish off sides again!
    I think they are about 16-19mm thick which gives just enough clearance for screen to slide out fully + it looks neat.

    You can buy DIN radio spacers and Nexxia sells little spacers for each end to make it look a bit neater.

    I am currently leaning towards this unit, since I don't need GPS and it has steering wheel controls etc

    The downside of this unit is that the soldering iron will need to come out to play
