Mini in a Ferrari
Alright Guys, I need your help on this one. I am building a Ferrari 355 kit and am looking to install the mini mac into it. It will be a convertible so I am trying to not have the thing look to obvisous as to have a steal me sign, since the car will surly get enough attention on its own. I am trying to get a list of everything I need to buy in line as I don’t start the project and go oh ****!!! I want the install to appear as close as possible to an OEM install, I do plan on using the pull out screen that fits in a single din, again trying to not make the sterio draw even more attention. I plan on using the CNX-P1900 so the computer will go into sleep or shut down when the cars ignition is turned off/on. My FM I am planning on using Radioshark, unless I am told there is something better. For the GPS and Navigation I know there is no true winners yet so I will hold off on this for now. I will be using a Lilliput touch screen to control all operations. So this is the list of things I must buy. Please add your input into what you like or don’t. If there is anything I can/should add to make this look more factory please add your input. I think I want to stick to mac because though I am a PC guy the only computer that is always running is a mac I have. Alright on to the list:
Mini Mac-being installed into glove box
Lilliput screen
In Dash Manual Housing - feel free to name any other fav other then the WW one
CNX-P1900
Y Cable Power Supply Thingie
GPS- ????
Frontend- ????
Also, I am toying with the idea of adding a slot loaded external dvd drive so it can act as my CD/DVD player. Currently also not sure about XM. Again I want this system to easy enough for some stranger to hop into the car and pull out the screen and use. Thanks for your help guys!!!
