    I'm about to buy a small HDMI display and an enclosure for a dash display.

    What size screen would you guys recommend? The choice basically stands between 4" and 5". Bigger is almost always better, but will the 5" with enclosure take too much space? What size are the real displays?

    Yes, after some googling I also found out that the real world MoTecs are 5" or 7". Not sure about all the others, but it's probably in the same ballpark.

    Then 5" will be a great choice, thanks!
