Got the Evo steering wheel installed. It was a real pain in the ass. The Evo hub connector is slightly bigger than the stock,
http://i822.photobucket.com/albums/zz141/djakay/evo%20wheel/evo-wheel.jpg

So the stock hub connector needs to be cut out and welded instead of mentioned above

sorry did not take pictures of the welding process, didnt have my camera,

but here is the end result

is the airbag functional?

[djakay]

^^ i haven't connected the airbag, the connectors are different. but even then it's not definite whether its functional until it deploys in an accident :(

[djakay]

So today i decided to start wiring up for the K8055 controller

got my new super bright 12 LED dome light

http://i822.photobucket.com/albums/zz141/djakay/97236315.jpg

They came with variety of disconnects, so i soldered one end for easy replacement

http://i822.photobucket.com/albums/zz141/djakay/5fc4d9af.jpg

Also got my beefy power supply M4-ATX and the case.
The power supply is programmable via USB, start up/shut down delay, min/max voltage, trigger voltage, etc,.

Here is the pinout:

[GND] [GND] [USB D+] [USB D-] [ Vcc ]

[ NC ] [GND] [ AMP ] [PW SW] [PW SW]

http://i822.photobucket.com/albums/zz141/djakay/d8deebad.jpg

I'd rather not disclose where the CPU location is, for my own security purposes, sorry, i had my car broken in 3 times already.

But it's not as big as it looks. can be fit in various places

http://i822.photobucket.com/albums/zz141/djakay/b2468c6a.jpg

I'm actually working out the details for my in-car DVR. it will start recording when alarm is armed and turn off when the car is started, also integrating a GSM Tracking with text commands, two way audio, live gps tracking, etc.

hacked up my old M2-ATX to power all my accessories and take the stress off the Main PSU

see the pinout Voltages for 20 Pin ATX connector

[Isaurio]

Ohh I see. I was talking about the processor bro. LOL. Intel, AMD etc. My question was about the performance of the PC not the location.

[djakay]

I have Zotac 610i ITX Intel Core 2 duo 2.7 with 2G ram Win7. Works well for the price
