Hi All,

I have just purchased a in car PC as im sick of messing with CD's in teh car as they are all over the place, So i have got a in car PC so i can just shove it all on one HD and just edit a play list to what i want to listen to.

But the trouble is i never think of things before i buy! so i was wondering does anyone have a guide on how to modify the centre console to fit a Monitor in as the PC will be in the glove compartment. also the relocation of thing like Hazard lights and Rear window heater buttons.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers
Adam

tbh i would of just got an ipod mate much easier and smaller to use

theres is no guides to modify the centre console mate, although a think someone on SSC has just got a pc in theres

its all bout cutting making a frame for the screen and buttons etc then fiberglassing over it and smoothing out ready for paint or whatever you are covering it with

lol yaha on 24/7 baby :p

id say get a spare centre cosole and have a go at making a build on that, tbh its not that hard to do if you have worked with fibreglass before

have a look at stevenet15s glovebox screen build, maybe do something like that
