OK, I got the chance to take some pics today, so here they are...
Here is the car...
- I need to get the windows tinted
Here is the center dash...
- Plan to put the 7" LCD where the stereo is now
- Sorry for the dirty interior... I plan on not smoking in the car once the computer is installed
Close up of the double din area...
Here is the kit I am going to order and mold the LCD bezel into...
- I'll be doing a lot of searching and reading on fabrication tips... feel free to give me some pointers

Here is the glove box where I plan to put the computer...
- I like it above, it will require cutting the back out of the glove box, and I need to make sure I have clearance behind the glove box
- It fits almost perfect below as well
- I am thinking of having this USB flexible keyboard attached to the back of the glove box door, but it might be in an odd place for actually typing (there is that raised area towards the front...)
- I also need to put a USB hub or two somewhere... maybe one in the glove box accesible, and one behind the computer or LCD for permanent USB devices (touchscreen, bluetooth, gps, etc.)
Here is an area that other A4 modders have used for various switches and LEDs...
Any thoughts what I could put there?
USB ports?
Power switch for computer with power LED and HD LED?
I figured I did not need to include any pics of my benchtesting... We've all seen a cluttered desk before
Keep the comments coming, I know some people have some great ideas I could incorporate....
