Here is what I have so far:

http://www.strohgolf.com/R32/carpc.htm

I am running a Tview 7" LCD upfront...
Rikaline 6010 GPS
XM-direct
160Gb western Digital hard drive
Linksys 54G PCI card
Audigy 2NX sound
PC Chips M863G v5.1c Motherboard
AMD Mobile 2800+ CPU
OPUS 150W
Carnetix P1900
Frodoplayer as my frontend..

I had to remove the top cupholder above my stock stereo as well as slightly modify the radio cage to fit the screen... however I think that for the amount of work + money spent on the screen install.. its pretty hard to get it to look better

i wish i could upper my trunk in my jetta, but it's way too big

That gives me an idea for my wagon/hatchback. I could do a false floor and mount everything underneath and be done! Did you use anything for absorbing shock such as a rubber mat or rubber "bushings"?

if it's tight fit, you don't need, besides MDF is soft by itself

honestly... I have never had problems with my carpc even when I had it in my avalanche... at least not with vibration/shock

but no I dont have anything in there but the MDF....

Also the false floor is very easy to do... I am not done doing it, but I could just live with it the way it is right now.. its very stable and doesnt bend or anything with all the crap i keep in my trunk all the time
