Nice Install, I love the LCD and case. Your carputer specs are really close to what I originally planed for my carputer. I still plan to use the parts but windows was acting odd and I just used my backup option, lol. Also where did you get that PSU and how much does it cost?

I forgot where i got it but it was cheaper than directly from Keypower, somewhere around $180 shipped. Thanks though, I had a hard time getting everything to work..

Do you have GPS setup or planning too btw? Or will it just be used for music and videos mainly?

04scooby · 06-21-2005, 01:06 AM

I do plan on getting GPS eventually, anyways.

I will get a pic of the DVD later today hopefully, not really stealthed as much as hidden though.

Looks awesome!

Where's the amp?

Very NICE! I think u did a great a job with the LCD man...

04scooby · 06-21-2005, 01:48 PM

I have the amp in the spare tire well, and a false flor covering it. Will post more pics if you guys are interested. LCD bezel was made by MP3Car forums very own PHC. But thanks for the comments.

nice install ! Post more pics !

Question about the OC though....isn't it a bit too much? I'm running a 2500 barton myself and if clocked down to 1100MHz could NOT really see any drastic performance gains compared to clocked normally at 1850MHz. Don't get me wrong - my home setups are all OC'd.

04scooby · 06-21-2005, 03:42 PM

the is oc is how I had it when it was in the house. I didnt change it cause it has not shown signs of getting hot yet. If I start experiencing heat eralated issues I will drop it back to stock settings.
