ceedub,

do you have a dvd/cd drive hooked up to your carputer?

I'm wondering how to mount a dvd drive and this LCD touch screen. Seen some units on mp3car.com which combine the two into a single DIN or a double DIN unit, they seem like a good idea.

My dvd/cd drive is on the laptop, since I mainly listen to Mp3's etc I am not too fused about it.

Liliput does have another type I have attached it here - basically a retractable screen that fits into one DIN space which would leave room for a DVD unit etc.

Price is more expensive around 350 to 400AUD (based on a single unit)

still doing the group buy? PM me if you are!

I am in if someone can help me set this up with a laptop initially and give me advice to buy and setup a proper mini-atx solution - I am definately NOT a computer geek, will need help.

Thanks

Sorry guys,

I haven't had much time to work on this lately.

My main concern was not enough genuine interest plus getting a final price as I am unsure how much customs is going to charge for this.

If anyone has some advise on this...

Also the unit I have has been performing very well but it does get hard to read the display in sunny weather. I'll have to inquire about a transreflective(?) version as I don't want to bring them over like this unless people aren't fussed.

FM Radio??? - who listens to FM radio anymore, with gigs of mp3s.... :O

You could add a radio card. RoadRunner (frontend) supports this.

Alternativelly I have a FM radio in my mobile which I have hooked up into the amps. Reception isn't quite good though.

    • I'm not quite understanding or I'm missing steps here, (I appreciate people are trying to inform my brain but I am of the dumb, especially today) - All I want to do is mount the male BSPT of the OEM sender into the system somewhere without it snapping the adapter via vibration. The Nissan sender has a male 1/8 BSPT output. The block has a (very destroyed) 1/8 NPT input. I'm not really sure how a lathe assists with that, and also don't know anybody with a lathe, nor specifically what I would want to buy. I'm not really sure how adding additional adapters creates a better, more leak proof resilient seal here.
    • 10 minutes on a lathe would be one way to achieve literally anything you want, too. (except for AN type stuff - just talking about M-F with BSP and NPT in any mix/combo).
    • yeah, so "something" should be -4 AN....to a hose....to a -4AN to NPT fitting *edit* sorry, I surely have that backwards. The LS is from land of the free so it must be NPT at the block, and the Nissan sender is BSPT. But still, conceptually the same
    • Yea I mean I know it exists, but finding (specifically) female BSPT to male NPT (i.e, to plug a Nissan OEM sensor into a 'standard' NPT port) was truly difficult. I don't think I'll recreate the setup I had in the past unless it's (possibly?) advisable with a stronger T piece made of steel, but who knows if the aluminium threads in the block become the next weak point etc. Given it may need to be redrilled out and something tapped into it, it'll need to be Female BSPT to the something that ends uo coming out of the side of the block.
    • Sounds like a perfect time to harness up a couple of the dogs, show the horses what real power is about!
