Now for the Dash.

Here's what it looked like before:

I had a Clarion VRX765VD in the dash with a XM adapter and a Video Ipod adapter.

I decided that wasn't enough and put in a 10.4" Shark :

I had to move the air condition controls down. I also removed the 2 cigarette lighters and anti-skid control underneath it.
I had to trim the dash bezel and modify behind it just a little bit.
I also had to remove the 10.4" screen from the case and trim the front monitor bezel for it to fit.
I then had to extend the OS board wires 3 ft for it to fit in the center console.

Next up was to move the DVD player into the center console.
I had to extend the power and Sata wires about 3ft.
Then I took a Dvd rack from a PC and adapted it to fit in the console.
Then I trimmed the center cup holder area to flush mount the Dvd Player.

Here's a pic of it coming out right up to the cupholders:

As you can see from the pics I also added a touchpad. The 10.4" touchscreen had way to much glare so it had to go.
I replaced it with a touchpad from here :

This touchpad is awesome. It acts just like a mouse and has easy page scrolling and everything

I also added a wireless keyboard and remote. It's made by Gyration. Got it from CircuitCity for $24. The keyboard is small - 6"x12.5" and less than 1/2"-3/4" thick.
Also the remote controls volume, dvd playback, and it has built in mouse control with the gyration feature built in.
