Hi all,
I am planning a Car Computer Project on the cheap. I would like to mount a small LCD connected to a broken Laptop in my car.
I can salvage a LCD from mobile DVD player with a good wide screen LCD and a Laptop with a bad LCD.
Can the two be connected together? Any other options?
Thanks!
No, not easily. LCD screens use custom interfaces and drive electronics tailored to the device they're in, you can't go mixing and matching.

No. The DVD player either has a proprietary interface or uses NTSC analog video.
Yes. See:
Of course, the installation may be somewhat ummmm.... drastic. See photos at:
Also, if you're in California, the state frowns upon TV and computahs in the drivers compartment.

I forgot one. See the "Displays" section in the FAQ at:
