CarPC Project: Mounting the SlimDVD Drive

Today I went on a mini shopping trip and got a few minor supplies for mounting the dvd drive in the front lower storage bin of my console. I picked up the following:

  • Silicon Adhesive- for attaching the stryofoam shelving
  • Grommets
  • Black matte spray paint

I also picked up a few things for the next phase of my project which will involve mainly some clean up of my console. Learn more »

CarPC Project:Rear Exhaust Fan- Part 1

I started the exhaust fan modification to the rear panel of the console. I will complete this tomorrow. Here are the pics of the progress so far.

Tomorrow I will perform the sanding and clean up of the panel for the exhaust fan. Regarding the outside of the panel, I will be mounting a chrome laser cut grill. The design is in a way appropriately called an “Atomic Laser Cut Grill” (the motherboard is an ‘Intel Atom’) . It will be interesting to see this with the green LED shining through once my installation is complete.

CarPC Project: Double Din LCD

Woohoo!! Bybyte emailed me stating that they finished the LCD Dash Combo kit for my car, ’05 Nissan Altima. This will atleast be one less thing I need to modify..for the most part.

It’s available with both LED Backlit Lilliput models: 7″ EBY701 and 7″ 629GL.
