Hey guys, I'll be there, but I have to work soon thereafter, so I'll be hanging around for about an hour and half, but then I'll have to bounce. I won't have time to do the cookout side of things... but if you all want to use the grill just let me know before hand. We can figure something out

I just saw your install, and it looks very professional, especially the dash. I can use some tips from you. I will bring my dash and screen to get some inputs....
This will be my first meet

Thanks for the kind words. I'm happy to help any way I can. I'm not the most knowledgeable person, but you're welcome to what I know. I hope we can make the meet enjoyable enough so that you become another regular. I'd love to see these meets grow larger and larger.

I'll show up for a bit. I've got a few kinks in my install I need to work out and could use a few suggestions. Discovered the site 3 years ago but don't post much because so far, all the questions I've had have already been asked and answered multiple times. Look forward to meeting you guys and seeing your installs.

Sorry I didn't make it again guys. I attempted to show up, but my GPS took me to the wrong place AGAIN. Almost the same place it took me last time. Then I had some components rattle loose in the dash that locked up my motherboard fan so I had to shut down the system. Has anyone else had problems with the Coordinates being off? I'm starting to wonder if my receiver is defective or something. Sorry guys. I finally had some new features to display too.

GRRRRRRRRRRRR...
I was there, wandering around for about 40min before I decided to go home. Only saw people with fishing pole, I was like this must not be Kevin. I was really hoping to see some of you guys. Looks like nobody showed up...
I just google map the place and it was easy enough to find, and I dont even have a GPS.
Was hoping for you to give me some tips on how to fabricate my screen, I brought all my gears with me.

Damn man, I'm sorry. I hate for someone new to get shafted like that. My apologies. As far as your screen goes, is there no bezel to the screen? I'm assuming thats why you need to fill in those gaps. If thats the case, you could cut a flat bezel out of some ABS sheet

I was there too for ~30 min but didn't see anyone that looked like they were from this site. Oh well, there's always next month.

Sorry you guys showed up for nothing. I've got my directions figured out now, I'm not relying on my gps anymore until I get that problem sorted out. I'll try to make sure i'm there 10 or 15 minutes early next time since my car stands out and is easy to spot.
