Has anyone toyed with putting a computer in their H2 (a more integrated permanent mounting).
I have been mulling around an idea for over a year but really haven't given it much thought. I have an extra notebook computer and that is where the thought was born from.
My idea is around this: taking a notebook and permanently mounting it hidden somewhere. Utilize a wireless keyboard and mouse and utilize the monitor output to send the monitor signal to a video switcher. One could run a gps and nav software on the computer and have a DVD-radio installed in the dash for the multimedia. I was thinking of a LCD monitor to hook up to a hitch-cam, I think the hitch-cam allows for another video input and will autoswitch.
If one wanted, they could install a card in the notebook to have wireless internet access, but I really have no desire for that right now.
You could also use the computer to "hook" into the vehicle to get the real time data out using software. As a matter of fact there are a lot of neat things you could do and with the computer you would have different options such has playing mp3s directly from the computer, hooking up 4 cameras outside while wheeling and having all 4 split into quarter panels on the screen, etc.
Thoughts?
