2005 Scion Tc Install (pics)

**fenderbender** · 03-23-2005, 07:17 PM

Here are my computer specs:

Biostar m7ncg
2400+ Mobile Amd

M1-atx
7'' Lilliput (Custom fab)
Custom plastic computer case
200w Alpine Amp

It took about 3 months planning. A week's worth of actual work. Finally had time during my spring break to do the install. Everything is working fine now, but there are a few issues. Since a lot of the components are under the seat I am worried with heat issues. Also, the amp powering the speakers don't sound too great. I think I need to get some equalizer settings for the nforce or something. Here are pictures.

Fenderbender, I also have a tC, and was wondering, did you ever toy with the idea of putting the computer in the space under the AC controls? I am looking into a MicroITX motherboard configuration, and with some modifications on the cubby spot below the AC controls, I think it might work. Did you ever experiment with this? If so, is there space behind the plastic cover where something about 10" might fit?

I had done a carpc project on my old car (acura legend) and I'm looking at doing it again on this new car (scion tc). In the old car I simply used my Pioneer headunit and fed the signal from the PC into the Aux input in the headunit. With this project, I have to install an amplifier. I wanted to know where you located the amplifier and if you installed it yourself. Do you have any pics??
