while researching on the web I came accross a In Car PC's. They sell them on ebay and other sites. I have seen YouTube videos on them. since the whole point of going to the double din was to put a built in NAv System; and I am a Computer geek i figure why not make this the fastest PC in town.

Here's the part where I make friends

it appears you have a bird living behind the screen in a nest? Get rid of the picks showing how you "mounted" the cd player and the nest of wires around it, that is not worth showing off.

Otherwise it looks good from the front.

good, hopefully yours looks better

I just had somebody contact me in my club that wants me to put a double din in a single din opening. He might want me to make the dash and customize it a little bit though, not sure yet. I'll take some pics along the way.
