You should be able to use the video in on that head unit with your pc if you have tv out on the carputer but the video quality won't be great and you wont be able to use the touchscreen interface to controle the pc.

Out of curiosity, what are you going to be using the carputer for that the headunit can't do on its own?

i just wanted to use it mainly as a music centre to store my music and save me having loads of cds. thanks for your help uve confirmed my suspicions how annoying, never mind

If you are only going to use the pc for mp3 storage you may be better off with an ipod instead. It looks like your head unit supports ipod control and a 120 gig ipod classic will cost a lot less than a carputer.
