If that has a motorized flip out monitor then I would have imagined that you would put the lazer etched RX-8 where the air conditioning controls currently are so that when it's closed your setup would still look complete, but also, when the screen was showing you would be able to access the air conditioning controls easily. I would have also left the hazard lights there. It fits and looks pretty nice. Again, just general feedback. I don't think I could do that if i tried.

I already have the factory nav system and would like a Car PC.
I'd use it to play mp3-4 stored on the HD and include a sirus...
Good Luck!

frick, I'm thinking of almost doing the same thing, except I don't have an OEM navi, but I guess it's not worth trading in my car for something like that!!!! I'd wish someone would make a replacement for the headunit **cough cough**

There are 2 groups of harness, one with 2 wires that goes to the motor & one with 3 wires that I suppose are the position sensors.
Both go directly to the PCB at the rear of the stock LCD.
Also, is the white connector receptacle used for powering it up?
Thanks in advance.
Yes,the engine is controled by the open and tilt buttons but throgh the lcd screen ,so my buttons now are only to make beautiful,hahahaha, i controle now the engine (already works) by a window's switch i putted down the steering wheel and i put up & down the Alpine screen with it.
Its more simply than it seems

We are still going to get these pieces done. We had some unforeseen events take place and have slowed us down. I will update everyone when we have a prototype. After that, it should be smooth sailing. Sorry for the delay and thank you for everyone's patience.
I already have the factory nav, which I do use; I love that indash mount! Although I got an XM radio and had planned to mount it in the ashtray area - will have to do something else to fit it all in there I guess.
