Finally finished off my install

Main Screen



Sat Nav



DVD



Hands Free Phone



Hard Drive Player



Reversing Camera

 

VERY nice unit mate, love the reversing cam

 

just admiring your carbon again.
sat nav screen location looks familiar!!

 

Where do you think it is then

 

Loving that unit,where can you get it from and how much

 

Yeah I'm loving that unit too.

Did you need any special bits to be able to do all those things with it, other than the camera that I've read about?

Looks very

 

That would be right near the QE2 Bridge, Dartford.

and the pictures of the houses on the reversing cam look familiar, i've rewired about 25 of them and the walls are feckin hard

 

Heres where i got mine from just make sure your sitting down when you look at the price ebay

Nothing special apart from a extra box for the hands free phone which the above seller does as well

Correct on both counts

 

already read slap head's comments below, but "just down the road from me" (20mins)

didn't realise from my "reverse cam fitted" thread that you were local as well - not that that makes much difference - would love to see tissy's full install but just haven't had the time to ask him about it!

 

Well i'm about 20mins away from that location as well

 

If you're on MSN mate, you can ask all the questions you like, i'm normally online

opp directions i think, having noticed the spacer ref on tissy's web site. nice screen too btw!

 

not yet but will get around to it one day! i do like the idea of what you've done - especially the flexibility of the whole system and the way you've integrated it into the day to day functioning of the car without it looking out of place in any way.
would love to have a good look at some point so i can be inspired!

 

Just going through this at the mo with a classic. It's a nightmare as everything is in the wrong place.

I have butchered my dash with a dremel and at first thought I had bitten off more than i could chew but I have made good progress.

On the classic its a single din apeture and the heater controls are at the top of the dash. I have moved the heater controls to the bottom and have got rid of the pointless "bright button" and the non functioning headlight leveling switch. With a bit of MDF and some body filler the new dash looks very well.

You may think its a little extreme but the car is going through quite a dramatic transfomation at the moment . The car will be around the 500bhp mark but will also have the interior stripped out and roll caged. In place of the rear seats there is going to be my ice install. Here are some pics of my progress so far.

Stripped out awating roll cage and dash flocking.

Facia shaped and ready for paint.

Amps, subs, Capacitor, and wiring dummy installed for testing and wire routing purposes. This will all taken out prior to painting or covering. The amp on the right will also be painted white.



Let me know what you think.

daz - that looks like one hell of a project. would be very interested to see updates now and then. i don't have the technical know-how or mechanical know-how to tackle (and actually complete) anything like that, but have a reasonable idea of the amount of work and forethought that's probably involved.
a full boot ice install would be too much for me as it just wouldn't be practical, so this sort of thing is pure indulgence from my point of view - but good to see!
