Greetings - want to update 2000 VW GTI headunit to Carputer! Need suggestions!

Greetings all! I'm an auto and computer enthusiast and figured this is a great place to come to learn about what I want to do. I have the factory had unit in my 2000 VW GTI and I would like to install a double DIN LCD touch screen that will allow me to browse files, play music and movies, GPS navigation and maybe even surf the net with my tethered Samsung Galaxy S3.

I remember finding (what I think I remember) was a samsung double din touch LCD on ebay a few months back but now I can't find it anywhere. There were a number of video input options, HDMI, or DVI/VGA, with a prcing difference. Does anyone know of the unit I'm referring?

So, if anyone has any suggestions as to where to start, I'd love to hear what you have to say!

In this post, http://www.mp3car.com/lcd-display/14...01-36-s-h.html recently they added the ebay link. You can also pm them and get the forum discount. If this is what you were talking about. SNO

I think that is exactly what I was looking for. I'm partial to Samsung products over the other small screens that I have seen. Are there any reviews on them?

That whole thread is the progress of derrick fine tuning a product for the carputer. I have the screen and the early controller and it is very bright and clear. there are some pics in that thread too by other members as well. SNO
