After 2yrs FINALLY installed double screen carputer in 06
So after putting up a post on almost all of the parts you need to fit screens (https://my350z.com/forum/audio-and-v...7-and-08s.html) 2 years later finally had the time to put it all together. I really wanted for the system to look as stock as possible. Heres some pics:

Well the parts list is reallly long the basics are:
Dell gx280 (only used a dell because I got it really cheap... the trade off is that it was a pain in the @$$ since everything on the dell mobo's is proprietary)
automotive PSU so it starts and shut off with the car, also has a built in check for low voltage to shut off
had to change the video card to support 2 monitors (pretty cheap sol'n)
2 xenarc 700tsv so both are touchscreen (comes with sw that allows multiple touch devices)
slot fed dvd-rw drive (didnt show pics but its in the center console compartment, others on this forum have done the same thing)
metra double din dash kit moulded to fit the modded xenarc case (I prefer this to a double din unit... IMO all of the buttons on these units make it look non stock)
Nav cubby is off of a 2003-2005. It will fit after you mod it and paint it (kind of a pain but less expensive than getting the 06-08 nav setup, also you can find these in the market area here pretty cheap) After modding it fitment is good enough that people cant tell its not from the car (last 2 pics of post 4)
2 extra xenarc cases to mod
had to completely mod the dell case to fit
and a whole bunch more smaller parts I can't remember.
Software is Roadrunner... aka riderunner now with digitalFX 4.0 skin. Colors and background can be changed so that it matches the 350z theme (its what I did). Setting it up for dual monitors is kind of a pain but the final product is worth it. Definitely the best carputer frontend.
If you have specific questions about any other part fire away
