    does this look right

    I hooked up my system in my truck, but I'm not sure if I got it together right.. how does it look.. works ok for now but my usb radio has cr@pola reception and I have no use for my in dash dvd.. actually, my computer won't play dvd's, although the drive plays regular cd's mounted vert. I'm also running out of space for wires to hide..

    .

    Check the microphone cocnnection ? why is it being attached to your car's HU ?? Also Why the rear view camera on the 5" when you could have it on the 7" (I assume this is yourmain screen) unless its going to be running all the time.


    Also the SUB connection from the PC... not sure what sound card you have but most PC's generally have 1 audio out... (you'll need to split this)

    oh yah, one more thing... Make sure to install your GPS reciever after the touch screen... they are both USB but they actually have software that emulates a Serial port, and they conflict ports sometimes.. it can be a headache.
