    power question

    what is the easies way to go about supplying your computer and the lcd touch screen with power. with your factory amp still attached. See what i want to do is put the ice link(connects the ipods to my factory radio with an aux inputs for another audio in to my stero system in my car) and use the icelink to simply plug into my incar pc and have the audio run through my stereo this way. but where and what wire do i need to get my power supply from to run my computer all by itself. P.S. does the usb cords on the touchscreen lcd's supply the power through the computer into the lcd or do i have to have another power supply?

    thank you for any and all help . im putting this in my e46 so i have to make sure.

    You have a lot of reading to do. It sounds like you haven't ever looked inside a car or have experience with car audio/electronics.

    This installation will be a challenge for you. You should check out the FAQ Emporium and also the Show off Your Project forum to see about other E46 installs.

    Then you should decide whether you are up to the challenge.
