For real Wayne, thats off the hook! although, i must ask the question, with so much screen space there, could you organize some sort of real time gauge program to be displayed on the screens? saves you putting actual gauges in there....awesome stuff though, keep it happening!

Too cluttered for my liking, but each to their own - I imagine you would spend alot of time playing gadgets in the car, whilst not moving, though?

I agree with EcotecManiac....
assuming you weren't doing accounting on that big screen whilst you're driving.... why not use it to display information/gagues/custom skinnable dash!?
you could also use it for live tuning and stuff like that!

have a series of buttons up the top or something to change screens (from live dashboard/tuning/pc/tv/headunit, etc)
or display a few things in once?

when you think about it, you could ahve your headunit, dvd/tv player, GPS, dash, telephone + all kinds of gague/sensor information display in the one screen...

failing that, get a widescreen LCD or two to replace the dashboard in front of you have a search for the 'HIGHIQ' celica - fancy dash setup there.

How big of an aerial do u have for your cb?

you do know that if your car came with an airbag, by law you are required to keep it. Mate it's a defect.

what would you say if i said yes i no.perhaps ill put the air bag in the sun visor so its legal again because there aint nothing written anywhere to where its to be.

not really sure if your trying to be a smart arse but I would say if your car steering wheel originally had an airbag you are required by law to keep it
Better? Hey I could be wrong, if anyone wants to correct me then go ahead. I'm only commenting on what I saw. It seems you already knew, (I figured you would, no idiot could assemble your car), so case dismissed.

there is a fine line weather its legal or not as the first vt utes were optioned not to have air bag the engineer told me this himself he would not give me a blue slip for it but did say if went to court might have case.and to be honest i hate the thought of having a air bag i left the one in passengers side but mine is never going back .

may be you can hook up AutoTap*to the computer and via obd11 connection.



* The AutoTap scanner translates the signals from your vehicle’s computer-controlled sensors to easy-to-read visual displays on your computer.

Yeah I'd like to get into that side of graphic programming...I reckon that will be the next big thing... soon as you get bored with the look off your dash you install another GUI...
