I was initially planing to go with a classic lite and a Classic Graphics Panel for mounting inside.
If I got a standard Classic could I easily remove it's display panel for mounting inside. I am guessing I would have to plug the hole with something?
Thanks
Hi Brlux,
Yes, the Classic display -- the MNGP -- is easily removable, and remoteable.
There is a practical cable length limit, but believe that this limit of about 100 ft/ 33-ish M.
There is a Dummy Display available:

Here is a short blurb on the remote cable pinouts, and construction:

Do not know where you are located, but Northern Arizona Wind & Sun used to carry them, but have not seen them there, recently.

Yes I remote mounted mine inside using a long telephone cable - the kind with the six pin plug . That cable must be 20 feet long - just guessing. I just stuffed a piece of rag in the hole where the cord came out of the case - to keep the bugs out - though plastic or foil or putty would work too and be a bit nicer !
