So after buying my 2006 HHR 2.2 witha 5 speed. I immediately modified most of it on the outside.

The way I bought it:


What I did the first day:


I did some minor interior modification and stopped for a few months. Those few months have been very hard.

During the time between then and now. I have been working on a Multimedia Entertainment System for my HHR.

Here are some screen shots from it:
Windows XP Based OS


New RADIO Controls:
Ads Instant FM Based



So now that the OS is working like it should. Now I need to start cutting!!!

The idea is to have a touch screen in the location of the old radio and have all connections to my laptop under the passenger seat. This way you can always replace the laptop with newer models in the future without having to rip apart the car again.

I will post everything I do here for everyone. If you are interested in the OS I made. Please visit my site where you can download the OS once it is completed. This is the Direct link to the Thread below...

( Still thinking about tapping into the Heater / AC controls and adding it to the On Screen Controls ) But I am a truck driver so... This programming stuff is hard to teach myself.

 

Very cool.. keep up the good work..
