    you know you're addicted to carputers when...

    i'd like to see how addicted people are with this... I'm going through my 3rd revision of my carputer, more power (Epia M10000 to AMD 1200 to AMD 1700, and opus 90W to opus 90W with 5&12V regulators to now opus 150W).

    anyways, to finish...

    for me: you know you're addicted to carputers when...

    while you shop for a new car, you look for a place to put the screen and the rest of the carputer.

    AMD 1700 & Abit VA-10 w/ 512Mb PC3200 Corsair Ram
    60GB 7200rpm HD - Opus 150W PS - Lilliput 7" TS

    Thats me too. I've been thinking about buying a new suv so i can put a bigger screen in it. And i built a IR reciever for my carputer. I also bought the wristlinx two way radio to implement KITT style voice commands to my carputer. And i think about it all day at work Like right now during my lunch break.
    Um, I guess this is where you put something witty.WITTY

    ha! yeah! i bought my WRX because it has a double din slot for the LCD, and a single DIN gauge pack housing for the CD player. it was made for this.

    I'm not done with my current install, and I'm already thinking about what I'm going to do differently next time

    ... you have a box of 'crap' that you thought you would need but never even took out of the package.

    also... you have a pile of fedex/ups boxes piled up in your room.
