Well done. The monitor looks very factory OEM.

After a couple of years thinking of a car PC I started finnally to build my system. This will be installed in a Mercedes ML 320![]()
First of all I collected all the parts needed (most of them are second hand) , after that I started to build the case.
This is a simple home made case, nothing fansy about it.
I will post some pictures think that will say more then words.
Temporary installation just to get XP in my Harddrive:
and finnaly after 1,5 hours (doesnt go fast if you DVD player is attached by a 1.1 USB cable )
Builded all together in my new case :
PCI riser for wifi and 4.1 soundcard
Power cables
HD mounted
After I finish with the case it whas time to think about the monitor mounting.
So I ask a friend of my to make one from alu.
Next step, painting it black and mounting the screen
After I finish this job I installed the monitor just to see if it looks like it whas deliverd by Mercedes
Well thats all for now, hope you like it. I just love it
Next thing to do is get Frodoplayer to run, using the Skin that I get from Mañana (thanks for that)
Hardware used:
Via Epia V8000
512MB Sdram
40GB 4200 HD
4.1 soundcard
54Mbit wifi card
7" touchscreen
M1-ATX power supply
Things to get in the future are:
GPS (I already have a Blaupunkt system , but It's just to slow)
USB Radio (car PC will be connected directlly to the amp.)

...I love the French language...especially to curse with...Nom de Dieu de putain de bordel de merde de saloperies de connards d'enculés de ta mère. You see, it's like wiping your *** with silk, I love it.
monitor looks awesome! very nice so far.
nice dude the monitor looks hot
I have been creating monitor templates for days now and I JUST decided to see if there was someone with a Dual Din like my ML and here you are. I have purchased an extra faceplate just recently on ebay and fitted all my mounting to it. The only problem I have been having is with heating. We have all that insulation behind our Dins I was afraid my lilliput would overheat. How is your monitor holding up?
I see you are using the Parrott BT kit. I Installed the 3100 into my GFs car, and it works great. How do you like yours? What did you mount it to? What is that thing?Originally Posted by seninha

The Parrot was already installed (on a standaard Mercedes Mobil ophone holder) when I bought the car.
I just love BT. Never get the phone out of my pocket.
Only problem is that I'can't see who is calling me (if It's someone from my phonebook I hear the name,)
About the heatproblem gsj224.
I hav e no idea , monitor is not installed yet.But I don't think is gonna be any problem, as there is enough room on the back
