Installed Carputer, touchscreen, laser jammers, GPS, projectors, etc... *pics

[enforcerman]

So I finally finished installing most of the things I intend to install onto my CLK 430.

It took a lot of time and a lot of work but it was well worth it, and I'm glad I was able to finish phase 1 right before I start my 2nd year at med school.

I would not have been able to do it without the help of all of you on the forum. Forums have changed the way we live and have allowed everyday enthusiasts to brainstorm, collect, and share information from across the globe. Big thanks to everyone.


So here is a list of modifications:

7" touchscreen (VGA + USB interface)
Laptop computer as brain for MP3, DVD, VIDEO, WiFi etc.
Bipes MP3 Adapter
Creative MP3+ external sound card
GPS via USB receiver and iGuidance 4.0 software
Bluetooth connection for cellular control of system
Escort 9500i hardwired
Escort ZR3 laser jammers
Viper alarm with remote start (kind of)
Projector Headlights w/ Halo (Black housing)
Kicker 10" Subwoofer + 2 channel amplifier
...and probably more that I can't think about right now


So the great thing about using a carputer, is that the possibilities are endless. You can also interface with everything. For example, when my car is in range of my house it will automatically transfer the new songs from the house to the car.

Thought you guys might want to take a look so heres some pictures:

nice work, looks like you've been hella busy.

Interesting how your placed the screen high up as possible. Where did you store the computer, glove box? arm rest?

Thanks!
The computer is in the same box that has the amplifier. I'll take some pictures of that area soon

I like carputers. Nice. Wish I could mount an iPhone into my dash.
You need the black all weather MB mats but they end up curling up like the ones you have. Your car has a beautiful face with those projectors and your bumper still has the bar, is there something holding it on?

Beautiful work enforcer! I love how you moved the air/heat controls to the bottom and the radio up. Not to mention the touch screen on top...

Snap! - You even took out the coin tray and moved the adjustment buttons down behind the door?

WOW!

A+ on the Mod's my friend.

Yeah the divider bar now has a clipping mechanism to hold it into place. The paint guy that resprayed the bumper and side markers came up with the design. When I bought the car I repaired that part of the bumper so I don't know how it was supposed to be originally

Have a lot of people had problems with the bar?

haha, thanks!
the hazard button fit perfectly into the ash tray, and with the vinyl around it, it almost looks stock!
