Wow......that's a nice big screen for the consol. Does it get in the way of steering? How did you mount it?

no, doesnt even come close to the wheel or the wiper arm.
its mounted with L brackets (AKA corner braces) it cant be pulled from the front to be removed but its kinda tricky to unhook the wires.

I'll be adding pictures to show the computer install in the glove box

that was a typo, it pulled out from the front, but unhookin the wires takes a minute or two, I made it that way so its harder to steal.


PC isnt goin in the car, it wont fit anywhere. but an XBOX withh be under the passenger side seat :)

If you don't mind the spending.....I know you can get those "LAN PARTY" computers that are about the size of a game cube.....wouldn't be hard to find a place for that. XBOX is good though. Just an idea if you still wanted a PC in there.

XBOX is modded, I could run linux on it but... thats a pain in the ass :)

I already have the Super NES, NES, Sega Genesis, and MAME EMus either on a DVDr or on the XBOX HD. I also made a MP3 DVD I can play in the XBOX for music (even though I already have an MP3/CD head unit)

the eject LEDs have been made blue, and I also have 4 blue LEDs stickin out of the front, all the same colors as my HVAC and key ring, and car alarm LED.

I was trying to locate 2 inexpensive Neon or cold cathode to put under the seats (hooked to a switch of course) but every place aorund here wants like $20 each

one of those little compers would probably fit very nicely in the trunk on the passanger side, concealed a bit by that little piece of plastic...what the heck is that for?!?!?!

***EDIT: that is a very huge screen! movies must be very nice on it! ***
