http://www.digitalww.com/TouchKitInstalation.htm this will give you an idea of what your install will be like.

You can buy a TV tuner for your computer. Also you can buy a GPS antenna and software, so you can replace your nav system.

WOW, 100 questions just came to my head. Would I have to take apart my current LCD to install a touch screen?

Also, I see other working with a VGA touch screen? Whats the differance?

Yes

A VGA touchscreen would be the whole shebang, basically a mini computer monitor with built in touchscreen. (this would completely replace your screen)

and the quality would be excellent, you would be able to read the text in windows.

First of all, that looks a little CHEAP

(J/K bro, TY for the link tho)

Second, I think YOU NEED A PAY INCREASE!!!!!

I am going to look into this a little more. I might need to sell off some of my stuff tho first. God I love Ebay :-)

Do you or anyone else (on this forum) see anything else I should change.
From the looks of it, I might be selling my 6 disk DVD player, TV Turner, 7" display, My nav system, as well as my master main brain! (My computer can do all this)

It there a smaller computer out thats smaller then mine? (I just wish mine was a little smaller so I can mount it up front (under screen)

**guitar333** · 10-14-2003, 07:04 PM

that is the only in-dash i know of as of now, but lots of people are molding their vga's (xenarc, lilliput screens) into their dash using fiberglass. I think this is definately the best way to go, it looks sweet. Check out some projects in this forum.

dont think there is a smaller motherboard than the epias, i know they have a new one comin out and so does pentium but not sure on how small.

http://www.mini-itx.com/news/computex2003-1/ this one is i think about 2 inches smaller than the epia mini itx on both sides, so this might fit under screen alot better

**SoloCon** · 10-17-2003, 03:35 AM

Ok, I am back.

TY for the info bro. I am deciding on either the touch screen kit its self (the one I have to install over my current 7" screen) Hows it work over all? The good or the bad?
