How to build your own car computer - Telematics bundle
This question has been asked over and over again so we decided to film the answer in HD as a way to test out our new camera. We have filmed the assembly of our telematics bundle.

Talk about this video here.

Building car pc
This one nice vid.

I hope someday you will have one on installing a dashboard with the most used features.

The building of the pc is not my biggest issue, but finding a dashboard and installing commonly used features is

Thnx

Thanks for the compliment. We hope this is just one of many "how to" videos. Hopefully the community will also help make videos or we can find some unobtrusive advertisers to cover the cost of their production.

I am really happy with the vimeo video quality.

Liked the video! The audio warbled throughout, though. Sounded like it was sort of stuttering slightly. Not enough to prevent understanding it but it was persistent.

Wow! That is too bad. I wonder what caused that. Did you watch it in HD? That really sucks up the bandwidth. The source footage is fine so I would guess that it got chopped somewhere in transcoding or downloading.

I watched it in HD and that was the choppy audio. I just tried it with HD off and it was smooth and clear.

could you elaborate, creating a bezel, or just installing a computer in the dashboard.
