i would love to do it but it does not sound easy at all! lol would i be able to do it with a normal headunit :S
also how good are you with car electrics?? i have a few things i want to do :D

I do have a plan of creating a more basic system whereby I would make a custom console with 7" touchscreen and standard din slot for headunit. Would be a plug n play with a laptop/pc build for sale but I'll be finishing this one first lol

Well as I haven't had much access to my car the carpc has been paused til I can get some measurements done.

In the meantime, I have completely wired up the TF wheel switches with good solder points and plenty of wire for when I install it in the car.

I have taken a wee video to prove I've done it for a start but also to show its functions.

LEFT + = Track Up
LEFT - = Track Down

RIGHT + = Volume Up
RIGHT - = Volume Down

Double Click RIGHT + = Mute

I have wiring completed to allow more functions as I haven't assigned Double Click LEFT +, LEFT -, RIGHT -, MIDDLE and Double Click MIDDLE.

It was quite difficult doing double clicks while balancing the wheel on my knees but you get the idea!

Very cool mate like that

Cheers Grimmy. Did some work on the centre console again today. Have almost completed the final part at the bottom to include the temp sensor, 2 switches (pc power and engine start) and 2 USB ports. Once glue has hardened, I will afix it to the console and then it will be time for filler/sand/filler/sand/filler.... until finally a paint to see where the blemishes are.

Today I put on the first layer of filler and once it hardened, I gave it a little sand to smooth it off slightly. Tomorrow I'll be sanding it thoroughly to see where I missed if anywhere....

that looks awsome! coming along nicely! and the video just makes the paddle shift music changer even better!!

Cheers Chris.

Did a bit more sanding today and gave it a light coat of paint to 1) get a feel for what it will look like in the end and 2) to see where and how uneven the sanding was.

It showed me there is a loooot of sanding still to be done but its heading in the right direction.

Sorry for the pic quality, flash wouldn't switch off, but you get the idea on progress.
