Reply With Quotethanks for the detailed photos and parts lists. Did you use a standard Seagate 80 or one of the automotive grade drives?
Well this is my first post and i thought lets make a nice 1
a while ago i bought a pioneer navteq 900 i had it for a week then i sold it because it didnt do what i wanted and i bought then a carpc
this is the first time also i build this into a car so please be gentle with the commentshehe
i decided to keep my old radio unit because when i did a little research about the carpc radio that it didnt worked really good and i didnt wanted to take that risk
another problem was also that i got 3 RCA cables that must power 2 amps and i wanted to have the option to adjust /set the equalizer of the subwoofers and the other speakers separatly
its all build in this car
for the interested people i got also pics from my car from the begin till the end how its now a big picture slideshow
you can find it here

i try to make many detailed pictures so it is easyer for ppl with the same car to make something similar like i try
i stole the idea also from a picture i found here called vauxhall corsa c if im correct
made the pics with my phone so the quality is not always 100%

how did you get a perfect cut without melted plastic for the cd slot?

MINI COOPER S PRO
It looks good, i love the CD slot from the top, i wish i could do that with my dash. I have way to many A/C ducts in my dash and cant loose any since I am in Miami, FL. I do have a question, why didnt you fully integrate the dash and screen bezel togther to give a more factory look? Also what happens when something breaks, now that you have epoxied and glued it, it doesnt look like it comes apart.

@ injector: i made it with a grinder with a small disk and a rasp dunno if thats an english word btw
@Crislamb : yeah its dutch forgot to change it , it means i touched my finger with the grinder hehe nice wound , but thats the risk
@HiJackZX1: yeah ur right , when something sis broken then i got a problem , but when i drove home today i had another idea for the next time
and why i didnt do what u said, if i want to sell the car, i get the stuff out of it
now i only have to replace the little plastic cover for the blowers and put the original 2Din radio in it and nobody knows what happend with that car
today i made it nice with filler and sanded it , also stayed a few hours longer on my work to give it a nice color, its black with flake metallic parts like i sprayed on my car
lucky me that i had a little bit of paint left
made lots of pics again and some movies , so this is done ,
now finding a good spot for the case
i saw an install here in a 4x4 jeep and that used a nice lock on the ground
i think im going to search for something like that and the alarm is going also in the car right away because its to full now with nice equipment
