I called two junk yards to see what they could do with the last two cars (89 honda civic SI w/300k and 91 ford explorer with 95k (POS!)). Both wanted $50 just to tow them away!

I wounder if there are any other ways to hook it in. maybe a cd changer connection on the back of the HU? IMO FM mods are probably butchering the sound quality in what sounds like a nice system.

Cool, my friend was going to put a docking station in his trunk.
He had problems with powering USB devices though, not enough 5 volt power. He never got a Radio Shack 5 volt power unit for the car though.
You can always run a wire to a button and tap into the docking stations power button if you wanna have access to it in front.
The great thing about a laptop, is it has it's own battery and won't reboot from a crank and you can set it to standby when the battery goes into use.
