Ricenav3000 - Highend Carputer Feeler Thread


Ricey

Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

After seeing some of the dross turned out recently by Cookbot & Neo-Ninja I decided that it was time to try my own hand at building a carputer.

 

My basic concepts and values all go against the crap these 2 have turned out - bottom line it needed to be slick, stylish, reliable, flexible and above all future proof.

 

So here it is - spec

- Laptop power processing

- Collapsible 14 inch LCD display

- 14 inch secondary display

- Integrated OBD2 reader

- Hands free mobile phone technology

- 8GB integrated IPOD interface

- Sat Nav at TomTom standard with 5 inch screen which can be moved at the push of a finger

- Built in 6 LED cabin illumination.

- ICE lighting

- Integrated tool kit

 

Here's the piccies of the finished article - its a bit rough but this is only a prototype

Any thoughts on price.

 

Initial costings put it around £999.99 fully installed (some cubby modifications could be required)

Well it was kinda my fault, I asked him to put something in the loft, when he did, he seen a few items, ran down stairs for some "tools" went back in the loft.........then I see this "Ricenav" thread.

 

He is a funny one :teeth:

 

I reckon we are going to be rolling in it soon :lol:;)
