it'd be cool to have one but i can only fit single DIN stereos in my console
I guess a flip-out touchscreen would work, but those are expensive
damn


how do you get your subwoofer and all your speakers wired up to the computer? some fancy audio card?

i dont have a system they weigh too much and make it a theft target...

i also have a headunit relocated to the cupholder area which is great about the 99-00 civics and i just have a AUX input that runs to the pc with rca cables

justinwebb the building your system in a cd changer case i proper stelth, i have a mini-itx built inside the glove box, i've got a 7" vga touchscreen. i had a custom built lower console with the screen inside made from fiberglass, although this looked nice it wasn't very practical as it was too low down, i had to take my eyes off the road for a second to skip tracks etc... i was using a m3-atx small power supply but... it kinda broke around a month ago, not sure why. anyways once i've built my console and sorted things i will be getting the newish m4-atx as it handles more power. i want to get a hondata ecu, so i can hook it up to the pc, remapping on the go
oh n by the way i'm running 2 12" vibe 1600watt subs and haven't had any harddrive trouble at all, may be lucky tho. the single dinn filp out vga screens are expensive, i guess if i didn't already have a screen i'd be tempted tho, it is a much easier option, no fun tho.
