Should go without saying ''10/10 for effort there''.

Hey All,
Um the screen is 7"widescreen, some no name brand, come out of a dual screen portable setup, the "RTS part" i hacked it up only mine said "ABS/IRS":)
its still all good, im happy with it, hooked up a reverse camera aswell, the camera is so stealth u cannot c it where i put it lol, popped out the boot lock and replaced it with the camera worked a treat.
Currently pulled the PS2 out coz of new laws in QLD, if you are caught with it on and its in the drivers view its 3points and a $300+ fine, so till i hook it up "legally" it stays out. Ican have the reverse camera on whenever i want because it is classed as a "driving aid".

Yeh about that, I have just put together a complete carPC, (well working pc, with xp) in an "Ampie"(VoomPC) case, the setup is suprisingly quick, what GPS software are you using and what adapter do you have, coz there is alot of Europe and US but havent seen much for Aust.
thanks if you can help me out
