Finally finishing my SHOW CAR with XBOX inside.. Published on 05-15-2006
" Hi guys,
Thought id let you know that finally after around 4-5 years now of building my own car totally custom i am getting back to my xbox modding in the car..
I did originally have an xbox setup when i first modded one and i have pics etc of it at the links below but now im going to do it propely.. You wont even know that a xbox is running the entertainment system this time. (well apart from the obvious)
C64 Emu (Frodo-x) in a Car:

I already have a pioneer 7.5 inch LCD tv installed and i had my laptop running my car's ECU stats with my last setup too but this im going for the music videos now more with XBMC etc..
Ive gotten some very cheap sun visor 9" TFT LCD screens too and am fitting them with thanks to some of my mates at a car audio place.. I could'nt believe the price actually..
My Xbox Downsize Plan:
The plan is to rip a xbox apart and get it into the smallest possible unit so i can put in my car.. I want it to permanently run XBMC and my music videos etc etc while on show.
I will of course be modding it with a modchip since im a modchip man. I will also be adding a Wireless network card of sometype so when in the area i can ftp directly from any wireless network to my xbox.. hehehhe (nice???)
Im going to setup similar to how halouser had his wireless setup in his xbox.. I will wire directly into the powersupply or the mainboard somewhere..
Im also planning on modifiying a bluetooth wirless joystick to be intergrated into the dashboard of my car.. It will be tiny with just the basic keys needed..
I was going to go with a remote but thought nah??? But i could change my mind you know.. lol
Ive been saving and saving for months now to get the final stuff ready to go in and the day has come.. Ill post some pics on my official car website as soon as i get more time and the job is complete.
its located here: http://www.implsv.xbox-hq.com
When i enter my car in a car show i plan to promote the HQ network so guys come and sign up and check out how much work we all do here..
People will love the modded xbox ideas etc etc especially in their cars..
Ill post a topic to let you all know my plans and so you can track my blogs as i add them..
well, enough bloggin for now.. Talk l8r guys... :)
