karl_20VT Unregistered K	Originally Posted By: MADCooP Was just reading this thread due to the newest post, and thought you might be interested in seeing this: http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q255/MADCooP_2006/ICE/13.jpg I saw this a few years back and thought it was a good idea. Again you lose the pininfarina logo, but I think it's well worth it. Just an observation, but it seems that most modded german cars are fitted with a prancing horse somewhere or another ( check the steering wheel) Why, oh why!!! Perhaps debadge, but don't pretend! That aside, I think the in-car computer option is a very worthwhile mod, leaving the possibility of rear headrest screens wide open. All good. Would be interested to know how this figures with a Barnacle widget too. Iain. i really like what he's done with the screen. only thing is its a 7" wide not 8" square. Still looks good though and kept his heaters lol.

Yes it's low down, but you keep the air vents and the logo and it more like the fit than ninja showed on his link, got me thinking now... 1996 Portofino 20vt & 2000 Pearl White Plus 1985½ & 2016 2017 Fiat 124 Spider + XF Sportbrake

RICHB Unregistered R	Gota say, the pic posted by ninja looks superb, the ashtray/lighter area is all unused for me, and this solution looks more 'factory' & modern IMO, i'd be very very interested in knowing more about how this was done.......anyone know who's coupe it was ?

Just a shame that a touch screen interface in that position would be difficult (if not impossible) to use safely while driving. Hence the reason for my posting the link above as a possible alternative.

karl_20VT Unregistered K	yea i get that its a in car PC. My in car PC connects to the stereo Aux port so that I use the stereo to hear the PC through the speakers. if there isn't a stereo, how is the sound getting from the PC to the speakers in the car.

peanuthead Unregistered P	it looks really ace and i want to put a double din in my car with sat nav and so on but i have been told it can't be done due to the center console housing? also i want this gear gater and knob. it looks really good. might have made a square gator but it looks really good.
