Default Stereo in, back up camera on the way. New question.

Well I got the stereo in and it sounds great. The rear speakers were upgraded to 6.5" 3 ways by pioneer. I actually had to fade the fronts a little because it there was to much sound for me in the front now. So now I have an entire pioneer set up and I am extremly happy.

Now, I have a back up camera coming. Hope to have it by next weekend or I will have to wait until the following weekend to put it in. My question goes with the mounting of the monitor. I am getting a 7" LCD with it that will eventually double as a DVD/Video monitor as well. I was thinking about using the lower open DIN to put the monitor in. When I need it, I can pull the monitor out. The monitor will be connected to a set of slides that will hold it in place. The only only bad thing is that I don't know what the depth of the monitor is, so this could cause some troubles, as I know I am going to cut into the dash a little, but if it is to extreme, then I will have to look at an alternate. I need some input for the alternate places, and if I think any of them are better then I will start there first.

Thanks in adavance.

This is the only pic available for the site. It has the box. It says that it comes with mounts to use on an airvent or even the visor, but I was looking at more of putting it somewhere in the middle so when I do hook up the vidoe input, that everyone in the truck can see it.

I guess personally i'd try to find some way to mount it directly above the cd player...
