These are a few pics of my install. I've located the motherboard in the glove compartment so I can have the dvd drive in dash. Please visit my web site, and post your reactions & questions! Also as of now all the carputer software totally sucks! Its too limiting, car computers can do anything!! Thanks!

love that too. It's more like a car built around a PC than a PC built into a car. Much respect.

Though ghetto, it works awesome! The real hold back it the IDE cable for the DVD rom drive. But I've just decovered a IDE to USB connection on this site, so maybe I can move it to the trunk. This setup only costed about $400, thats a lot of ghetto for your buck!!
