In-car computer

[coachreed]

Here is my creation... I took vacation next week... supposed to go to Moab but now I don't have the cash to cover the gas expense! Damnit! Anyway, I think I'll used next week to do my install of my carputer... here is my modified dash... I will run one of the frontends like mentioned above (all found at mp3car.com)... I am running an Alpine PXA-H701 with the RUX-C701 controller... Arc Audion five channel amp, Rainbow components front and rear, Arc Audio sub and a few other goodies including an Alpine CDA-7995 just in case I actually want to listen to the radio (but I doubt it since I'll be running XMPCR)... oh, and this monitor will also display my rearview camera... check it out... whatayathink?!

tat looks really good...u plannin to sell those!?!?!

[coachreed]

I doubt I'd offer to sell them in volume... but if a person were to be interested, I'd consider making another... for a price! lol I hate paint and finish work, so the price wouldn't be cheap either! The kewl thing about my work I did here, is that its NOT fiberglass or bondo... it is completely made out of ABS plastic... the kewl thing about that is that won't EVER crack or break... if your familiar with fiberglass and bondo on top of plastic, they are two completely different materials and so eventually they will crack.

The monitor is a Xenarc 700TSV-B (B for black... they also come in silver)... I just gutted the electronics, cut the dash to accept the monitor bezel, then used dissolved ABS (ABS in acetone)... I have a thread over at MP3Car.com talking about my ABS solvent adhesive process that I used.

Anywho... I hope to do the install this next week since I can't afford my trip to Moab now!

Later!

That's quite a thread on mp3car.

It's about time that someone came up with an elegant and non-Bondo based solution to dash fabrication.
Well done!
