Dash Fab (pt 2.)
I married the bybyte lcd frame with my dash kit with the epoxy putty. looks good. except that i effed up and put it in upside down. how to fix this?
options:
1) tear out and do again - NEVER!
2) use windows to flip screen - Will work but might be annoying that bios screen is upside down
3) mess with pin38 on the lilliput ribbon - I think this will rotate the screen 180degrees.
other than that, it looks fine. will start filling and sanding down more tonight. will post pics later.

Dash Fab
I picked up some loctite epoxy putty from lowe's last night and am going to start cutting up the dash kit tonight. I'm going to fit in the bybyte lcd frame and tack it up with some super glue, then use the epoxy to fill in the voids. sand it down. and then add some body filler after. sand it down. and hopeflly itll fit.
im still not sure what im gonna do about the dvd drive. i was going to add it to the dash, but i think i might just throw it in the center console, the smart slot, or the glove compartment.

Software
I put everything up in the spare bedroom. so i can start working on some stuff.
I put the new roadrunner (now renamed RideRunner) on the PC. I updated to winamp5. I had to mess with some stuff, but I got HD working out of the box. which was sweet.
i bought an xmdirect box at circuit city for 10 bucks this weekend.
ive run into a sound card issue. which is i only have 3 jacks. i thought i had 5. this presents a problem. for 1) the audio outputs i planned were three outs and 2 ins. so i need to do something. I'll either get a pcmcia or usb soundcard, or possibly the MJS line-in selector. Which may be the better option. Much more expandable and I think the quality of the on-board will be fine.
I'm ordering some epoxy putty to fab the dash.

then the whole software doings.

Doctor's Orders
So I think I'll have a lot of time this month to work on stuff. I went to the cardiologist yesterday and he told me not to do any strenuous exercise until I can get tested at the end of the month. Sooo... I have all my parts. So I will finish my sub box and make the amp racks and configure the PC this month. Wooo....

To Do list and some progress
So here is the deal...
I installed XP sp3 on the jetway last night. runs great. tried putting minlogon on it, no dice. i have to disable windows file protection, will do that this evening. im creating an nlite install to reinstall a smaller footprint to fit on my flash drive. i will take all unneccesary drivers out and throw in the drivers i need as well as take out features that are unneeded.
As far as fabrication goes... im going to order a double din dash kit along with a bybyte 629 housing. Bybyte says that an ABS version that doesnt require the double stick tape will be out by the end of October. I opted to not create the dash because the abs i was working with warped a bit and it just didnt seem to want to work like i wanted it to. So that gives me plenty of time to do all of the other work. Which is this list:
TO DO:
Software:
nLite XP sp3
Install nLite XP sp3
configure minlogon (done) and EWF
configure boot skin
depending on boot time configure shell to load front end
install roadrunner and gps (delorme)
Hardware:
finish fiberglassing sub box
mount motherboard and peripherals to rack
create amp case for trunk floor
bring power to back
bring monitor and usb to back
wire amps up
replace door 6.5"
