Wow, they must've ran out of money on developing this that can't come up with a more professional "NEW PRODUCT" sign

Those things are HORRIBLE!

Its like putting a TV screen on a Gas Tank..... (wait that was done)
Or putting a TV screen or projector in the Trunk.... (wait that was done too)
Or like putting a TV screen UNDER the hood.... (wait that was done too)
Or putting a TV on the rood of the car..... (Wait that was done too)
Like putting a TV UNDER THE car..... (someone confirm that this was not already done. )

Yep, it was done. Saw it on an episode of Pimp My Ride!
I couldn't understand it and still don't.
