Hum.. the 50ft robot thing sounds pretty cool... but I dont know about the talking... I'm invisioning it sounding like a complaining woman wanting more gas, to go faster and for you to buy things for it.

Would get really annoying pretty quick.
I suggest adding a mute feature.

your setup looks nice. I did mine a while back and just got done with front nightvision cameras and regular rear view cameras on mine.

Look around the forums on MP3car.com. I think there is a thread that says how to do it.

not sure if the OP is still active here, but I have been researching the CarPC install, and am going to use a JoyCon to map the OEM nav buttons to keyboard inputs... there is a neat software interface for this that is application specific too!

great install by the way, hope mine turns out as nice!
