For a nub that is...
This is the first install that I have ever done...
I just was always intrested in putting wierd things in wierd places...and plus...im a computer geek....
or so as everybody says...
im the only person that i know, personally that has ever done such a thing.
These pics were all taken yesterday from 4:00pm to 7:30pm...meaning, i did everything in under 4 hours...including driving, running back and forth...and idling...which im good at.

just so you know...i kinda wanted to make a newbie guide for my friends if they ever dare venture into the unknown like i have...


The Package for the lilliput 7' monitor came in at close to 4...and when it came....i was shaking with excitement


ohh...what a beaut... I already like how it looks....



See how it will fit into my dash console area




just got it...but i cant help it...i must take it apart....


first i took off the bottom bar part.... and the buttons.


boredom...thats not gonna work...mabie i should of gone for an 8 inch?


frame check...IT FITS!!!

AZNiNjARaVeR

remember...this is my first time i have ever done this kinda thing, and i plan to do it agian, so i need comments on the job and how can i improve...

LaxPlaya8513

do you by any chance have an amp for the speakers yet? because if you do i would highly recommend complete deletion of the radio all together. Otherwise, not too bad for a 1st time install. Any more pics of the PC case?

does that plastic putty give you enough support for pushing with your finger? you may want to use some epoxy to just add more strength to that... or go with the ABS Sludge...

AZNiNjARaVeR

Im still working on the pc case because i dont have a motherboard yet.
Just a question....ya i have an amp for the speakers, why should i get rid of it?

The plastic putty stuff gives plenty of support for the pushing of my finger, that stuff hardens like crazy and stays that way.

guizai

First off, please, please, please, get rid of that Doreamon steering wheel cover.

Nice location though, fits so nicely.

I think he had some of this pre-install



Azn: You need to find somewhere for your deck and for your lillput buttons. If you're not using your deck that much, why not put it in the glove box.

Dennis5587

if you don't use radio, then just get rid of it, best off in the end

AZNiNjARaVeR

Nope, i actually had none of these pre-install's
all done by myself...unless if your talking about the subs...i installed those a long time ago...
and ya...i was on redbull actually...
I actually use it alot...all of my friends and i are really into all kinds of music...
each one have about 40-50 gb's of music on our 80 gb ipods>_<
im not sure i want to put the deck into the glove box, cuz i store alot of important papers and small car tools in there...
i might just relocate it under the seat

AZNiNjARaVeR

im gonna get rid of it as soon as i get.......A GOOD motherboard...
im still waiting for my boss to get me it...
i just took the crappy computer and temporarily placed it in....
its soooooo slow...
only if i had a stronger power supply....
cuz...........................................
i got another motherboard which is a 939 64 3200+ and a 256 vid...
which would...not work with my 160w powersupply....>_<
i wish...
