drew028 Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Just got around to installing the 10.4 Touch screen for my car-puter. I redid it 3 times just because it took awhile to find the best way to mount the tv. Tried fiberglass and 1/4" mdf and finally settled on 1/4" abs plastic i got from my friends shop. Easy to work with and is strong and bendable. Thinking about dying it the color of my dash or maybe a darker brown. Or maybe just black....

drew028 Posted February 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 (edited) you have pics of the computer itself? i would love to do this but dont think i could fit the computer anywhere. My car came with 6disc cd changer in the glove box so it worked perfect. They make mini motherboard which are 7"x7" very small. Mines is Intel atom 330 1.7ghz dual core with built in 6 channel High Def audio output, 2gigz of ram. I went over kill on the hard drive and did 1000gigs. But the motherboard is basic, low power consumption (7watts) enough for playing movies, videos, music, but stil powerful enough for 3D gaming. You could go overboard and get something more powerful if you wanted. They also make power supplies that will turn the computer on when it sees ignition and shuts down after a minute or so. You can do all this for less then the price of new tv radio and have the capabilities to do so much more. Ill get some more pics when i finish it tomorrow.
