I've decided that I'm going to make something like this with the chassis from mechatroniks and a pico-itx board. I'll post a link to the progress if you want.
I've yet to get some parts though

Can anyone recomend a camera for mount in trunk keyhole? Who fit in there. Anyone done that maybe?
I did read one article by "TacoBill" at mustangforums.com. He did mount a cam for his dvd stereo in there, and that looked great!

Greetings all. Just thought I'd chime in and say Blk02si, amazing thread. Very inspiring. I stayed up the other night and read the entire thing from beginning to end... today I ordered all of my components to put together my first carPC. I plan on ordering a custom case from you (hope you still do that). I'll be mostly stealing your exact design. Plan on making an embedded XP install and running it off of a CF IDE card.

I have a 2005 mazda 3. Took my dash apart today to measure everything. I'll need a case that's just slightly smaller than your standard design and I'll be using it upside down to make it fit. I'll be making up a plan in autocad within a few days then I'll prob be asking you for a quote.

Until then, hey everybody. You all have converted another carputer geek.

Hey everyone I just wanted to post some pictures of the finished product, I took a trip to Kentucky this past Christmas.

The GPS worked the day before I left but did not work when I hit the road. For some reason it wouldn't connect, I tried XPort but that didn't seem to work either.

Well anyway I'd like to thank you blk02si and everyone else in this thread for all of your help along the way with the project.
