Holy crap that's smooth. How'd you recreate the texture on the rest of the dash so seamlessly?

Yep, thats one smooooth dash. Can't wait to see it lit up on your install, keep up the quality and you'll soon see others wanting molds of your dash. Could make some extra coin.

12inch screen, sitting right next to the driver... I'd hate to get pulled over with that in the car... Also, the screen may be abit close to the driver, don't you think??? Ah, maybe we need to see it in the car...

It's still a Civic. hehe

Nice setup, mine is going to be similiar but have only a 8.4" touch.
I just took out my whole center console. I'm going to take out my Kenwood headunit and replace it with a 4 channel Kenwood amp and use my Hauppauge TV/FM Tuner with remote.

Where is your DVD-ROM located?

Whoa!!

That screen is huge....optimal viewing point is standing on top of car looking through open sunroof? How is anybody sitting in a seat going to be able to see that screen? Nice fabrication work!!

can you tell me more about how you covered the dash with leather?
It looks very nice.
