Default Blue or Green screen SECS monitors

Anyone got pics of the blue background screen fitted? Want to see how it looks. Can't decide which colour is best Cheers.

Wouldn't that actually require driving it, or do you still sit in it making car noises and pretend it is finished?

Mike - the link doesn't work and your site seems to be down at the moment. I want to order one which i'm hoping will come by the weekend so I can mess around fitting it on Saturday.
