LOL! Your floor console looks like mine right about now.

Carputer completed 99.9%. I did a complete make-over. I used to have a Eeepc setup but I switch over to a fully integrated Carpc.

VoomPc2 + M2-ATX
Intel Atom Dual 1.66
2GB
SSD
Video Out (For ipod, and game consoles, dvd)
Auto Start and shutdown control.
Fully custom Lilliput (double-din) I spend about a month to fab+paint.

I will post some images + a video soon.
