Custom touched screen installed

Check out my new addition. It is a custom home made dash and new A/C relocation console. The set up cosisted of an 8" touched screen monitor, slot loader, dvd player, and a pentium 4 pc to run GPS navigation and customized Frodo Player program. Added to the player was the "Evolution VIII" logo. More to come later.

Looks good man, I did mine a few months ago. What set up did you use to relocate the HVAC?

Anyone else interested in a similiar setup, check out the GB i'm running for the Orbital Prestige 2-DIN Dash Kit. The GB discount ends tomorrow, so check it out asap.

I couldn't wait for the Orbital Prestige 2-DIN Dash Kit. Not only that, I needed a slot for my dvd player. Therefore, I had no choice but to make one myself. Btw, it was a biatch!

Well, I broke the first touched screen and had to reordered. Free PC from a bro-in-law and all other little crap. Approximately $800 more or less. Would be $200 less if I didn't break the first screen. And yes everything was done and installed myself. Can't wait until I get my Zeitronix back. It is being sent back for repair, so that I can intergrade into the player.

You using FRODO player correct? I am using road runner , but was considering Frodo.
As you I am running a Zeitronix. I plan on changing my whole system out in the next week or so, more pics on that later.

I haven't use Road Runner, but Frodo player seems to work for me.
