I had MASSIVE problems trying to find something to stick the hoop side of velcro to the dash without ruining the upholstery. I discovered this shyte from Spotlight works perfect (it better for $3.60 a strip) and it has a sticky backing.
The LCD is mounted with velcro so I can remove it anytime I park up or leave it out for the night.

+Another thing that can be used is an in-dash lcd that can fold away when not in use. You can get these for around $200

Turnt on the invertor, turnt on the LCD screen and finally turnt on the xbox. IT WORKS!
The only problem I have, is the video plug is a little different to the socket, and I need to find some plugs /washers to space it out so it doesn tcut out.

+__Things I have learnt__
+
+* Look at your Xbox Modchips Bios size, ''256k bioses dont go well on 512k bios roms''
+* Don't get too excited that you pull the Xbox apart before you even have all the instruments to mod it
+* Most PAL games can be played in NTSC
+* Xecutor 2.3b allows output of NTSC but games played as PAL (nice one franko!)

+Just some notes -
+
+Now modchips are available with lcd module output with the most common being 20 x 4 characters.
+I was thinking of mounting one of these in the dash so that I can see what song is playing and also have an lcd monitor such as the one above (7" or whatever)
+
+This would enable me to play music without the hassles of having to have the large lcd out.
