your screen uses rgb+s inputs, right?
...did you just get a converter for 300$ or did you build one yourself...I built them myself...and just want to see other options that i may have missed

I loved how you suspended the case, i need to do that

Hey,

Beautifull Install. One quick question. What is on the screen in pictures 2 and 4? 4 looks sort of like a music video.

Peace,

Rafster

You can have a car like that... just get mortgaged out the *** and suck those credit cards dry.

Is this better than the standard system in the BMW 7xx I see in your garage? I was told that that has a standard system build in including Traffic info and navigation and so.

Hey guys

Glad you like the install. I mean it was not as involved as some of the others on site.

yunusyu the screen is using a navwithtv.com unit for $399 u hit it on the money. It came with a remore control which you can see on the pic to the left of the i-drive its only function is to tougle between the i-drive screen and the video input.

aguila the 745 does have navigation system in it and it does come with live Traffic contral its standard. On my 5 the navigation is not standard the reason why i did not go for it is i was planing on puting a computer in this car even before i decided to buy it, the nav screen will stretch the image, i like my screen right now its 5'7 but the images are not stretched.

Yea i done the work my self it took me two days to hook it up to the battery, i used an fm modulator first horrible

but now i got AUX install at the dealership so the sound is great now.

You can see the case is fliped upside down, by though way its the new OPUS Mini-Itx case it comes with the build in fan and 90W power supply.

rafaelsherman one pic is music videos this is why i put a computer in my car i have over 400 the other is a picture of the I-Drive menu which is a front end for my car.

Quick question do you guys think if i put a 7' to that power supply it will have enough power??

Are you happy with this device?
