Quick vid of my carputer in action...

Here's a minute long vid I made...

http://www.dropshots.com/day.php?use...8&ctime=230337

First part of the video is the music interface, which has over 1500 songs stored on it.

Then, I go into the video section, which has about a dozen music videos, and a few Chappelle Show episodes.

After that, I go into the XM satellite radio portion.

I didn't play with the DVD section, but I also have about 10 full DVD's stored on the hard drive.

Now that is sweet. Where did you put your hard drive.

Hard drive is mounted in the trunk, where the spare tire goes.

I also have an external 40 gig HDD, that I can plug into my USB port in my glovebox.

snova,

give us a breakdown of equipment parts you used. I've been looking at getting a mac mini setup (been checking out mp3car.com) before I got the hhr. I just want to get a good idea on how much a setup like yours would cost compared to getting a double-din unit with everything.

Very, very nice! That would be Lady Fenrir heaven, she always is adjusting the stereo, fiddling with things and with all the options on your car puter I could drive to Chicago and she would be glued to that thing. Now if I could rig one on a shopping cart....... Great job.

Hot damn! Nice job. You should really consider that as a profession!

I think stereo installation is his profession if I'm not mistaken. Carputers are cool but that would be way to confusing for me to opperate. Hell, I get my disc advance and track advance mixed up on the factory 6 disc. I try to change the track and I change the disk. I do it quite often.
