Chrono,
Can you share some info on where you got the Skin for the Range Rover?
Also, your setup looks awesome man!

I got the software from mp3car.com

The front end is called Road Runner. The Skin is called Elite 1.1
I swapped the logos out of the Elite skin. I can attach my skin if anyone wants it. Can you attach files to this board?

Stay tune guys....

I am dumping my carputer for a phone setup.

I got the HTC Touch Pro and will be getting the video-out cables. The Phone rocks. I will be running Garmin XT and IGO8 navigation. It is freaking incredible. IGo8 has 3D level terrain and 3D buildings. I got streaming youtube. Real album art from my music. Google Earth with street view. When I get it set up, it is gonna be on youtube.

Why on this earth would anybody want to be watching Youtube while trying to drive? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Chrono!
Sounds great! I juhst pm'ed you with a question and sent my e-mail so you can attach that cool skin!

PM me if you get it!

Hey Thanks for the reply on the PM..
Looks like the HTC and the iGO 8 are solid!!
Will you hook the cables to the GVIF from HTC?

Ok, again for n00b´s like me

i buy an carpc at ebay, buy the 2-3 other parts to fit it in the car and it works?!

I asked last year an company who makes car pc´s, they said to me that the original touchscreen monitor didn´t work with an car pc.

other question: what i exactly need to use the touchscreen with the pc? i heard from an interface from gnet. whats the exactly part number or name?

thanks

While I absolutely to those who have gone to the lengths of installing a system like this is their car, I do however have to ask the question……….why ?

There is no doubting the amazing technical ability / expertise knowledge involved in doing a project such as this, but to what end

If you want a load of music, burn a few Mp3 CD’s & pop 'em in the slot or plug in an Mp3 player into the Aux input.

For Sat-Nav either go for the factory fit option (overpriced / restrictive) or just get a TOM TOM, Garmin or some other such unit.

For Video / Movies……… well you shouldn’t be watching movies while driving

Now I should qualify this by saying I’m a gadget junkie just like anyone lese & love my toys, but I really fail to see the benefit or use in these elaborate installations. Of course this is in no way intended to criticise or be-little anyone’s efforts, I am truly amazed at what is being done here

But to be perfectly honest, I really am left befuddled by the whole “CARPUTER” thing

But then as the old saying goes......... "Horses for Courses"
