Hi this is my first post here!

Has anyone tried to mount the actual player say under the seat or somewhere out of sight and the fascia itself in a dash location?...
I have a dash opening in my truck that wont fit the whole player but will take the fascia, if I made a little fiberglass body for it. It would require that I extend the display (20-pin) flat cable to about 4-5 feet. Would there be issues with that?
Would appreciate any input. Thanks!

BTW Great board
