    1994 Honda Accord Coupe Computer Project

    Just wanted to take some time to post some pics of my current setup and what I am currently working on. Here are the specs on my stereo system and computer.

    Stereo System
    Pioneer Deck custom mounted (See pics)
    OEM Speakers (6x9 rear, 5 1/4 in the doors, tweeters in dash)
    Rockford Fosgate Amp
    Rockford Fosgate 10" DVC Sub in speaker box

    Computer
    Shuttle PC w/PIII 900mhz
    384 PC-133 ram
    Maxtor 7200 rpm 80 gig
    5" raw lcd display in custom housing
    Lilliput 7" touchscreen (Working on right now!)

    Shout out goes to my man Otis because he truly is MacGuyver when it comes to making it happen with custom ideas!







    These are the current gauges I have installed in my car.




    Sitting @ home waiting for me to come finish it.

    did you relocate your HU faceplate to your visor? if so, that's hardcore. that opens up a whole new horizon for my future install.

    I have to use fiberglass and bondo to build out the sides but I did have to shave the top and bottom. I also had to remove the clock because it interfered too much. I just finished fiberglassing that whole about 3 hrs ago....I hope to have it ready for paint prep tomorrow afternoon.

    WELL.....I was almost done but one of the parts I chose to fiberglass decided to crack on me. Upper right corner of the clock..err where it used to be. I'm thinking I need to do some resanding, fiberglassing then repainting. But this should give people a good idea of what the final product will look like.

    Looks like bondo, not fiberglass. Thats why it cracked. Where I used bondo on my install, it wasnt to hold the screen or fill any major holes. If I were you I would have used fiberglass on that top hole and some resin on the sides over that bondo.

    For installs like this, I would use 40/40. It is used to adhere two plastics together and then it is easily filled with 40/56 and sanding and painted. Fiberglass does work well with this type of install and bondo is good but will crack. Figure I would try to help
