thanks for the link DarquePervert

so far Front end is going to be road runner!

^ i don't completely agree with everything that is stated, but it is understandable-- in a standard car, many of those are serious issues. in my little convertible, rarely anyone sits in the rear seats, because it is more of a punishment than a seat.. and everything is nicely tucked away, so the seat don't grab anything moving around..


i don't believe there are any music players that can control, or manipulate the audio with T/A, or x-overs(i think there might be some plugins for winamp, but not sure on the quality, or if they can route a stereo signal to more then 1 pair of outputs..)

at this point the only 2 options are to do all the audio processing in the computer, or to get a external audio processor...(check the high end car audio section there's lots of info there.)

I think the car pc will give me better control for my music, there are a lot of winmap and foobar plugins eg channel mixer, shibatch equalizer, vst plugins etc, resampling, rta ability

Considering implementing the car pc within the double din unit, if not then I will go the route of using a atx board in the hatch area(really dont want to do this)

So right now I looking for an enclosure double din that can fit, Is there anyone on the forums that can build one for me ? If possible wont mind a screen also. Shipping is no problem with me as I have a skybox in Miami. Will not mind used parts.

Parts list at present:-
dc-dc powersupply
double din enclosure(preferable metal/aluminium)
lilliput or any other good screen
fm tuner card
usb soundcard (later)
case fans
obd2 to usb cable

ok making progress, will be sourcing the enclosure from this guy -> http://www.shocknet.us/chassis_pics.html

also has anyone attempted to use a netbook in a double din enclousre?

Ok making some progress, is it just me or has the site improved?... anyways back to the important stuff:-

OBD cable ordered 50US

Have any of you guys checked out this?

i have seen that before-- it is similar to other all-in-ones.. i recommend reading threads like this before buying a all-in-one solution.



that motherboard, and power supply will not fit in that case-- that case will only work with pico-itx boards. and that board requires a component processor--i belive any AM3-socket processor will work..

the lilliput 701 your looking at will not directly fit in that dash kit that you are looking at either, but would require a front bezel like what the case used.. to put the screen in the bezel would also require that you remove it from the factory-lilliput bezel, which would void the warranty of the screen. while the conversion process isn't too hard, if you have any doubts about doing it, i recommend asking mo-co-so, or mp3car to do it for you-- this way they will warranty the work to prevent extra cost issues for you later..

Hi everyone
I am newbie here.I wish I will be able to get necessary information from here.
Thank you
