Default Carputer FTW

Hey guys, just letting you all know the next mod going in the car which may take a while. Im going to turn a reg old xbox into a computer with a touch screen with nav and a huge hard drive full of music and movies and games . Im going to hide it in the "glove" compartment and use one of those 2 top storage units to add on a separate CD drive in case i want to listen to CDs and put on any old xbox games. What do you guys think? good addition to the club?
