Hey guys, new to the site. I had a quick question. I have a V1 and the external display and going to hardwire it in my 04 g coupe. Anyone done any creative things with the external display? For example, I had an 03 WRX and i hardwired it the rear view mirror and stuck the external display behind the stock clock area. I put a tinted plexiglass behind it and stuck the display behind that. When it was on, it only showed the arrows, etc. When it was off you couldn't see anything. I don't think the G has any places for that but just seeing some creative ideas you guys came up with. I'm stuck. Thanks.

Not sure how this would work on a 'G' but my other car is a 300 m and I saw a picture of one where they mounted all the indicators into the instrument cluster.

Third brake housing pointing back at the rearview mirror. Not sure how thick the external display is, if thin than maybe behind another mirror so it shows through the mirror when it lights up.
