Mustang 2005 CarPC with stock Shaker 1000

Well a little update

The chassi is almost done. I will take pictures of it later.
The Metra frame has arrived and the old LCD touch is modified for perfect fitment in the metra frame.

I hope it will be ready for testing in the car this Sunday night. I guess the Scosche Harness will arrive at Wednesday/Thursday.

A little picture of the LCD/Metra frame is attached.

man that's a nice car...I could still kick my friends a$$ for trading his GT in...
PLEASE! take your time and make it look good.

I'd almost consider trading my Maxima for the newer Mustang GT's... but I think I'd lean the way of a 350Z first

kicks *** do to the fact that he's in sweden and driving this car. Was surprised to see those plates.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! Very nice looking car! (not as nice as mine though

) LOL.

I am still gathering pieces....Maybe I'll have this thing done by Christmas...who knows. I have my mobo, ram, HD, Metra Kit, Mechatroniks kit, and my amp9. Can't wait to get it in my ride:

Thanks everyone for the nice words

To bad its soon winter here so car will have to rest until May. I allready miss her(after 3 weeks).

I think I will try out RoadRunner as the frontend for now. Mostely because its for free. But seems kicking a$$ too

. Else is CentraFuse pretty cool.

Tomorow I will work more with the case. Hopefully it will be "completed" to. I hope I get the harness tomorrow to.

Here is a pretty bad picture of the LCD/frame mounted in the faceplate.
God Night And Over And Out.

sweet ride man

that metra kit looks good in there, almost like it came from the factory that way.

there's just something cool about a black GT.

I used to own a Black on Black 2001 Camaro SS Convertible. That was a wicked cool car too...too bad I don't still own it (I'd be poorer than I am now b/c it fell apart like a damn over-used tinker toy and wasn't even half out of warranty yet) otherwise I'd be putting a carpc in it

Thank you,
Yes there is absolutely something special with a black car. This is my third now

.
First a Toyota Celica 2.0 -90, then my first stang a GT 95. They are a real pain in the a** to keep clean. But when they are *grrr*

I just have two quick questions, since your starting your project already:

1) What front end is that??? I was going to use RoadRunner with the Mustang beta skin, but that sure looks nice!

2) Are you using an external crossover for the sub? I was planning on using my mobo for the crossover, but I have no idea what the crossover frequency is, or where to adjust it, or if it is even adjustable...

Thanks,
