when bryan finishes his interior he is going to have THE ABSOLUTE sickest msp. and you will all coddle his balls for being the genius he is.

i gotta ask. what is the need for a computer in your car?
i wanted to do it, but then i thought, what the hell would i do w/ it?

 

[Doodsmack]

that is a nice ass center console, i must say. paul, you can have unlimited songs at the touch of a screen, GPS navigation, rear-view camera, DVD playback, OBD-II diagnostics, a/c controls (so i gather from this thread, didn't know it was possible yet), and you could tune your turbo system.

1) music. i have a 160 gig drive in the carputer.
2) tv shows/movies. again, 160 gig drive.
3) navigation/GPS - its cool s***
4) wardriving - plotting APs
later on
5) EMS software - no need for laptop

[ChiMSP]

You're Drunk??? What about me!?!?

 

[Poseur]

yea, it was pretty frustrating to make this work...think about it, most of the bezel had to be cut away, and then i spent at least a week making sure the damn thing was straight and aligned (hell, ask Poseur how many times i measured the s***, ahah)

He even bought a set of digital Calipers just so he could get accurate measurements.
And STILL thought things looked crooked eventhough it was generally jsut him leaning with the camera....

Honestly, you KNOW I give you ltos of s*** man, butit does look good. Glad to see it finally together and not breaking under it'sown girth and whatnot...

Honestly ppl, you have NO IDEA how much work this thing was...

 

[Dexter]

haha breaking under its own girth..

tis a heavy b****, probably weighs like 5lbs

 

[L8R]

i saw this done, idk if ud wanna move your AC switches over this far though...
nice screen though, dope (headbang)

 

[Dexter]

interesting...

even if i wanted to move my knobs there, i cant, all the hvac stuff has been modded and will not work with stock parts anymo.
