Here is my enclosure made from a Radio Shack project box. The only problem I really had was that I ended up having to cut a hole in the back in order to get the the fit I wanted. I wanted the screen to be flush with the front of the box. It looked at first like I could do it without cutting a hole in the back, but it needed to be done. I covered it with a little flat piece of plastic I cut out from an old drill bit container. So far it is held in place with velcro, it works pretty good, but it started to peel up a little after some extreme heat. I am thinking about building a visor for it, for night time driving. It reflects of the windshield a little to much, even on the low brightness setting. I am happy with how it turned out, but it took way longer to make than I expected. I probably spent 6-7 on making the box.
