    Anyone install PC in Expedition?

    I just purchased a 2001 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer with the Mach460 sound system (factory installed sub). Has anyone interfaced a pc in with this system yet? My plans in my Jeep Grand Cherokee (traded for Expy) was to replace the entire HU and splice into the factory infinity gold amp. However the radio in the expy has DSP, factory 6 CD changer, several amps, and also allows the rear to have control of the stereo for dual listening front to rear (have to use headphones for the rear). So i think i want to keep the stock HU. My thoughts were (A)fm modulator (easier but the sound is not "as good"); how bad is the sound? (B)some type of Y adapter for the CD changer where i can select which source with a switch (either pc or changer). I also will have at least 3 LCD's. I need to be able to have 3 different sources as well (TV tuner, PS2, PC/Navigation/Frodo) on different LCD's at the same time or on all three at the same time.

    If anyone has any thoughts, ideas, or experience it would be most appreciated. Also PICS would be great!!!

    Thanks

    Why buy a ford? They have lots of transmission problems especially the Expedition.

    I'm enjoying my Expedition as well. The carputer is built but I'm awaiting the OPUS and Lilluput from mp3car.com. It's been shipped.
