lets see how well your panel fits. I want to do something like this to a maxima, to get rid of the amber screen.

I installed a navigation app..works fine..all that is left for now is installing a bluetooth kit that will go with my iphone (for handsfree)

I'm going to use fibreglass and complete the inside....i'll have it by next week. I'll either do it myself...or just send out the dimensions to someone and have them complete it for me.

Good question,

I have a laptop in the trunk(its pretty much the computer itself, No screen, no keyboard, it looks like a book lol)

Its a 500 Gig laptop, so load my music into with my portable usb Harddrive.

if i really need to work on it for a lengthy time, I just unplug it, carry it into the house, hook it up to a monitor, plug in mouse and keyboard

and work on it..

when i'm done..i just plug it back in the car

SN:wires are tacked away right now.

INTERESTING...LET ME START..

I'M ABLE TO DO MOST OF WHAT THAT THING CAN DO..OTHER THAN THE SPLIT SCREEN AND LANE ASSIST...

NOW..WHAT CAN I DO WITH THIS...

1. INTERNET OF COURSE..

2. AS MUCH MUSIC/VIDEOS AS I WANT(ALL I HAVE TO DO IS ADD STORAGE)

3. WEATHER UPDATES

4. I CAN SYNC IT WITH THE CARS COMPUTER..RUN DIAGNOSTICS ON MY CAR..JUST LIKE AN OBDS SCANNER.

OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD THIS IS ALL I CAN DO..MY OPTIONS HOWEVER ARE PRETTY MUCH LIMITLESS..

Think I posted one in this forum a couple years ago.
Dude had his setup so it boots up when he turns the ignition on & shuts down when he turns the ignition off.

Its a nice investment if you have the time & money to spare.

[Reble]

Yep, that's what mine does as well! It's a nice and fun project!
