G'day Mates (Gals included),
Firstly tried searching and only come up with really old threads, surely others have attempted this by now. And if I've missed a thread that you know of please post a link for me
Interested in putting a double din touch screen, that can handle a car computer or carputer that some call it.
The car computer I want to run android software which also can handle ODBII car software aswell (but not sure of the PC version of this, as being a different chipset, not everything works)
So possibly XP (or dual boot) and run software from MP3car.com which I've done extensive research before the android came out.
I've seen some dedicated 12V autostart with ignition etc through google etc, Not sure I'm to happy with any touch screens as yet.
Looking for one that can handle radio, dvd's, reversing camera with switch and ultimately run computer config regardless whether the radio or reversing camera is on or not.
Has anyone seen anything like this?
If anyone has got a setup done, can you please post pics and details of what you have done and got.
Secondly I have a HP 2133 10inch notwbook or netbook
HP 2133 Review - HP 2133 Sub-Notebook First Review | Ubergizmo
I havent't read the review, but you can see a pic here on what it is.
It's not the best laptop, so good to take on occasional use in the car when my samsung tablet just isn;t enough (i'm using right now) I also intend to run XP on this so it will be faster then windows 7 that is currently running on it.
Anyway it fits in the glovebox perfectly, so hopefully I will come up with a design that it will go into glovebox slide out for the passenger and also swing arounnd to the driver aswell if required. that way its hidden from prioring eyes aswell.
I don't mind if I have to remove the back of the glove box for hardware to handle this, as long as I can close the glove box for orginal look.
If anyone has any idea on what would work for this, or anyone has done anything similar, please post and let me know.
Thanks to all,
Can't wait to hear your replies,
Jas
