Never liked the idea of the PFC commander just sat about, or hooked up in a cradle on the dash.
Saw this thing on EBAY, thought it was quite a good idea, bit pricey tho

wow I like that, but i dont want to get rid of my double din stereo....desicions desicions!
Not too bad price when you consider a R-Magic holder is 60-80 quid
I have a single din radio, and then 3 gauges, so the stereo would have to go i think.
Which would mean stealth fitting it somewhere else, like in the glove box, one of the rear bins, like you said decisions decisions :)
Thats a great invention!!!!
That looks great, but i don\'t fancy soldering 32 little wires together!! :chat
Am I going mad or is that display orange?!!!!?
Thought Power FCs were only green displays ?

Looks smart, dont like how my commander is held to the dash with what looks like a cheap phone holder, although Im skint atm so its a no no for me :(
Yep its orange, but if your prepaired to solder 32 wires, then doing a few more to change the LCD would not be a problem.
Not looked inside my commander yet, but from previous experience with LCD screens inside PLC control units there not hard to change.
if your handy with a dremmel it would not be to hard to make one of these from a single din blanking plate, as long as you where good with a soldering iron.
I really like that mod and I agree with NIX a little effort and a dremmel you could knock one of these up.
I was going to move my commander, the ash tray holder is almost the right size a little modding and some bog and it would have fitted and looked discret, I dont smoke so I dont need a ashtray.
But after seeing that I may be tempted to go for it, my only worry would be taking the commander apart. bugger it once I\'ve finished what seems to be a never ending list of mods I am going to do it.
I will defo be making one of these, I iwll take some pics on how I do when I get round to it, but if someone else does it first then please lets see your work in progress.
I had an idea a while back for holding the commander , I was going to remove the center dash speaker and make a holder for it instead , would have to pull the commander out to adjust anything but the display would be visible
