Installed this in August...and 4 months later...here it is (I'm lazy

)

it's also on my site www.icarputer.com

Centrafuse - Front end
Iguidance 2.0 - GPS
Karen's Replicator - Syncing files

8" Lilliput Touch Screen
VIA M10000-N Mobo
256 MB Corsair RAM
120 GB Western Digital Hard Drive
Orinoco USB wireless internet adapter + 7db external antenna
Rikaline 6010 GPS receiver
750 Watt Vector Power inverter
Custom Acrylic case

The case:

Front view where most of the connections are

Bird's eye view

Side view. You can see a small relay board that turns the computer on and off.

Other side view where the DC power connections are to turn the computer on and off and power the
volt meter and lilliput

The Dash and Screen:

You see the voltmeter which turns on when the computer is on

Another view

View at dusk

No security (screen on)

Low security (screen off)

Medium security (screen covered)

High security (screen removed and put into the lock trunk)

What a mess. And what a beast. The MTX 81000D. This is with the backseat folded down.

The trunk. The inverter, mids/high amp, 12" sub, and of course, the carputer.

I'll agree with oekunder! but it's up and running! that's all that counts right?

isn't PlexiGlass a ****** to work with?

well...heres the thing...i really dont care how it looks in THIS car because i'm taking it out this summer when i buy a new one. i knew form the start that this was only going to be in the car for less than a year. I jsut wanted to see what works, what doesn't work, which software is good, what i should add on, how everything sounds, etc.

sweet! I understand completely! so what are you looking at getting next?

**fantomas** · 01-20-2005, 12:46 PM

i really want an 02-03 wrx wagon. they are in my price range, but insurance might be a *****. there's really not much else t hat sparks my interest. maybe an 04 spec-v or supercharged 05 tC

Hey man, could you repost or email those pictures to me on how it turned out. I'm going to be doing a install on my 96 accord ex and I was just curious as to how you did it. I'm going to be running a 1.66ghz mac mini or if I can find the laptop processor a 2.4ghz. Thanks.
