      Hi all. Who knows if the monitor should be close to the glass (without a gap)? It’s just that some matrices have a frame (about 2 mm high), so if you attach the matrix to the glass, the fit will not be zero. Will this affect the imaging of the modules on the mirror?

        @evgeniy88 put the LCD as close to the mirror as possible.
        Even 3mm will decrease the quality of transmitting picture.
        It is better to leave only metal bound for LCD (usually, all LCD has the metal base frame)

          My first mirror had about a 1cm gap between the monitor and the mirror and it was noticeable.

          It’s not necessary to dismantle the monitor, but it will improve the finished look.
