well i'm currently working on a carputer setup for my alero, and here's what i'm doing.
itx mobo,PSU in glove box (custom case) w/cooling ducts.
7" touchscreen LCD in original stereo location (glassed in)
stereo relocated to below HVAC controls
slim DVD integrated b/t HVAC + stereo
here's a pic with the stereo now relocated to beneath the HVAC controls and glassed in.
but here's the question. how should i integrate the stereo bezel into the center console? i would normally glass it in, but its too difficult/impossible to remove either component after doing so. any ideas for what to do? looks like ass right now... really need to do something, but either was its gonna be difficult to fiberglass. anyone have some wise experiences with this?
i was thinking lay down the entire area of the center console that will be blended with tin foil, then lay in some structural plastic pieces to get the general shape i want, lay a layer of fleece down over that and start shaping with fiberglass. then when its all done up, take the bezel out, peel the foil off, and put back together. that way it will be blended pretty nice and still be 2 pieces.
all ideas welcome...
