Hee nederlander!
Heb jij ook een carputer en zo ja heb je een link?
En waar woon je eigenlijk?
Ik ken helemaal geen nederlandse carputeraars eigenlijk.
Tijd voor een nederlands carputerforum.
Er zijn er vast wel een paar

Jaja, beetje de hollander komen uithangen op het forum!

Just kidding! Bare in mind not a lot of people will understand dutch posts...

Nice install, really fits the car nicely, that LCD! A little carpet will make it look much nicer, so hurry up!

Thanks!
I'll start the carpetting when i'm absolutely sure that I didn't miss something in the setup.
When you buy a new car there is a piece of plastic on the radio shaft.
You can click in on and off.
I cutted the screen in it, so now i have a releasable front also

The kickbass is real good, I should filter the rest out, but i haven't found a way to do this without an crossover network.
When this is ready it should sound better.

Voor al die carputerende 'Ollanders en 'Ollands sprekenden.

Hey mensen,

Ik ben ook net begonnen aan een carputer in m'n Volvo 240.

D'r zijn al verschillende Nederlandse forums over het carputer en car pc gebeuren.

Ik ben zo vrij geweest om mij ook maar even aan te melden.

I agree with almost everyone who reacted: carpetting is needed
