ok answered my own question lol

heres part of the new plan
trunk i will be building my own case out of fibre glass

w00t
i will have an xbox in that with NO dvd drive (ewill make life easier)
and in there a pc also with probably a dvd drive.
these will be ran to the front and hooked to my screen

ok so still wondering about a deck. also does this screen have an output so i can simply change from xbox/pc with the screen and not the deck?

thanks

It's late and I have been working all day so I am a bit dimmer than normal

What is a "deck" and how would you output from the screen - the screen is an output device that has inputs on it? Do you mean a head unit for audio?

ive always head the head unit called a deck

sorry

yes head unit
i plan to mount my screen as well as a slim line usb dvd rom into my dash. im trying to figure out how i want to do my sound.

since ill have a dvd drive im trying to figure if i should jsut NOt have a head unit and use usb sound system from my car puter

wutcha think?

ok heres an image of what im wanting

i got 90% firgured out
except for what i want for gps and what to use for a hea dunit :|

hea dunit does NOT need to have a cd slot since i can use my pc/xbox for all them goodies

so what do i want to use? anyone

looks like your problem will be to find a HU with 2 AUX inputs since you will need to have audio for the xbox as well. Maybe a switch to select between the XBOX and Carputer before going into the AUX input would work?

There are alot of HU's out there with RCA AUX inputs. I got my Clarion DZX545MP off Ebay fro about $100.

hm yeah seems i will be mounting my screen down behind the shifter.
and then i will work the dvd rom drive into the dash bellow my head unit

my concern is. ive seen some screens with outputs for a second screen.. but this scren doesnt have that. so i will have to install a simple switch before my hu. will work the easiest i think
