New Karputer plans for WRX, advice needed

**jaymatic21** · 08-18-2005, 09:07 AM

Ok I'm planing a karputer for the WRX that I'm going to be buying in the next 8 months. I want to run a laptop system with a docking station in the car for easy removal. I found a diagram that shows how to lay it out. I'm just asking for help with what some of the things are and where to get them. Here is the diagram

BMW are not the only cars with ibus. They may have been some of the first, but it is a newer standard that many are jumpin on the bandwagon.

All Saab 9-3s after 2003 have it.

No I don't have an ibus but ya alot of newer car are putting them in. This is a diagram i found on here for someone doing a laptop install on a BMW with a thinkpad. I'm using a dell laptop and I want to do the docking station w/ on/off controller and dvd/cd/rw in dash mounted and a usb hub somewhere mounted. Gps and all the good ****....internet hopfully donw the road.
