Sup guys I just wanted to show my little project, and I'll be glad to help anyone who needs help doing this in the future

Navigation / Videos / Internet and there's plenty of more that a computer can do.
Anyway Im finally almost done after some labor for a couple of days here are some pics
First cubby I tried cutting to make a case out of it and I just cut too a little too much
Second cubby I cut it right and left a little square on top to mount the Hard Drive
Another pic of the computer case
Pic of the power supply

Close up of computer case

Other things I added are: the pioneer head unit and boston speakers.
Things missing: Iguidance for Navigation / GPS Antenna / Install software on the computer (mediacar)
