I think it only needs a sunshade (plastic top and sides, fold in and down when not in use) and side mount nuts (tilt up-down) for an arm mount yoke to have it able to be mounted anywhere.
I want one.......

Thanks! I will add some pictures soon. In the meanwhile I have made an acrylic front sheet with
passepartout backprint (plotted adv. film normally used for cars) and an aluminium back plate
with gasket.
And I have added a 5 mm, 20x20 mm silicone heat pad to transport the processors heat directly
to this aluminium back plate. Works like a charme! I can run the Pi at 80 % power without getting
the overheat symbol.
Btw. I made a moveable holder for my 7" Pi display two years ago:
I have an acrylic 'door', don´t know the english name for this. The 7" display sits
directly behind of it and i can control OpenCPN with the remote control through
the acrylic plate. Very useful if you have bad weather!
