Hey whats everyone think of this, just finished it before winter:

The flash/camera messes with the clarity of the screen and the gap in the last picture between the white piece and the rest of it is no longer there... I'm thinking about doing a how-to if there is enough people interested...

The display program is called RaodRunner and is freeware online for Windows XP. I used a laptop cause it was a lot cheaper, I bought an old laptop on Ebay for about $150 after shipping while a carputer would cost about $600 to do it right. The laptop is a little slow at times but is more than sufficient for what I use it for, maybe soon I will upgrade if i have the funds. Check out www.mp3car.com for more info esp. about Roadrunner since the creator is a member there.
