Default In Car PC Build, Which monitor?

Ok, what size monitor did you guys use on your DIY in car PC projects. I'm looking for something touchscreen and that will fit in my 95 4dr civic. Lastly;

Where did you guys mount em?

Any write-ups?

I had one and loved it. The price is cheap but it would be tough to find another screen that compares.

LOL

Here is a smoking case for using a Mini ITX mothe board and a CarPc Power Supply. No converters needed, and it has daughter board setups so you can use PCMCIA wireless cards with it. We are seriously considering building one of these for fun.
