FS : Carputer Stuff, and/or computer and audio equipment.

Ok guys. I put this in my truck and its pretty cool, BUT, Im not real tech savy, and can't seem to get everything to work perfect... Therefore my experiment is your gain. Below is a list of componets, which I will sell seperately, but prefer to sell together.

LCD: Lilliput 629GL-70NP 7" VGA Touchscreen w/ Auto Back-up Camera Switch
DASH KIT: Metra Silver w/ Texture
WIRING: Metra Toyota Factory Wiring Harness
AMP: Nitro BMW-4 300w 4-channel Amplifier
PS: M2-ATX 160W Intelligent DC-DC PSU
MB: Zotac Motherboard
HD: 160GB Western Digital SATA Hard Drive
RAM: 1GB x 2 DDR2 RAM
SOFTWARE: Windows XP Pro & Centrafuse 3.1 w/ North American Navigation.
WIRELESS: Rosewill 802.11 b/g USB wireless network adapter.
BLUETOOTH: Adaptec Bluetooth Dongle
DVD: Slim External USB DVD Player
GPS: Garmin USB GPS 18 w/ nRoute Navigation Software and mount
AM/FM/HD: American AM/FM/HD Radio receiver w/ serial port interface and serial port to USB adapter.
MIC: Slim noice-cancelling visor mic.

Other: All necessary RCA, power cables, etc.

So basically this is a computer entertainment system for your truck. It does AM/FM/HD radio, Bluetooth phone control, wireless internet,GPS navigation, plays dvds, gets the weather, works like a giant ipod. Also controls your ipod, and can also have XM radio added, as well as an OBD2 interface to control and view diagnostics. Everything is controlled via a touchscreen. The car power supply automatically powers up and powers down the system when the car is turned on or off. A seperate amp puts the audio out over the speakers. All necessary harnesses are included so that no cutting of factory wires is necessary. Currently everything works, except the GPS is weird, apparently a patch is needed to make the Garmin talk to the centrafuse software. I've just given up on it as I am not a software guy. The amp and AM/FM receiver fit behind the screen, and the CPU is in the glovebox. I've included some pictures, the wires need neatening, but I never finished up. You can also hook up additional displays, and hook the backup camera to the screen if desired.

$650.00 shipped.

 

Oh, all the software is licensed too full versions. AND you could put the computer in a case and have a pretty fast computer!

It has a Celeron 1.8ghz lower power CPU FYI. (35w core)

Tempting, but damn that is going to be a ton of work... What is the deal with the internet/ weather? Is there a service you have to pay for?

Details on the Garmin patch?

Would all the components fit in the center console?

 

Shouldn't be much work. I was able to run all the wires in a couple hours. All the harnesses match factory and are ready to go. No splicing etc. needed. Internet is through a standard wireless card. I tether to my phone, but it will connect to any wifi. No service.

There are aftermarket programs, most free, that will apparently create a virtual com port and send the gps data to centruse. Centrafuse needs this because it only looks to com ports for GPS data, not USB, like the garmin 18 uses.

You MIGHT be able to get everything in the center console. But THAT WOULD be alot of work....

 

Great- apparently I suck at computers too. Let me do a bit of research and get back to you.

 

Would you be willing to do a trade for a different type of headunit? One that is a bit more simple but just as nice?

 

I would consider trades.

 

is this still up for sale?
and would you sell it without the amp?price?
