Talking woohoo! carputer up and running.

Some of you might know me and some might not. My name is Curtis and I mostly lurk but I decided I would show off and share my new completed project. I know its been done before but Im excited iI got it done and also you dont see many people having them.

I recently finished installing my car computer in my 09 WRX and i thought I would share my experience with it. Its not too bad but takes a lot of thinking due to space and placement of things. best thing to do is plan and test A LOT. I mean really test everything multiple times before installing it will save a lot of headaches. Im actually posting this from my car right now from my driveway haha. I just used a extra laptop i had laying around that had a broken LCD with a VGA port to plug my external double din LCD too.

If anyone is trying to do this or just have questions about it I would be happy to help you or direct you to the right direction if I dont have the answer haha.
