Hi guys,
I finally finished my Magden setup on my car which I bought the hardware almost a year ago, LoL! Anyway, It was fairly easy setup but it took good amount of time to get it done the way I wanted.
Magden basically a ITX based mini PC which has a custom bootable IDE flash drive. Since its a PC, I figured out that I can create a bootable external USB drive to boot off of it. That way, I can have access to Windows 7 based PC on the go! All I need is a wireless wifi/3g card so I can access to internet. I believe Verizon has a such card that supports wifi and 3g. The motherboard supports VGA, DVI, RCA and Composite S connections. I know Modme recently posted a thread about his own PC setup not long ago. He found a way to connect the PC to OEM screen via RGB and touch screen through USB. I am using RCA output right now since I got a video switch box that allows me to switch between OEM screen and Magden PC. Its only supports RCA so I took to easy way out. The Video Switch Box Called NavTool and its available online. I hope this information is not against the forum regulations since this product legally on sale in U.S. and it doesn't alter with the car's computer or wiring. Just like any other mod (KP tech or V1) we put in our cars. But still, If I crossed the line here, I apologize.

About that big red switch, I know it's an overkill but stock switch came with the box was too flimsy and small. My girl friend broke it with her elbow when she was reaching for the door handle!<!--[if gte vml 1]><v:shapetype id="_x0000_t75" coordsize="21600,21600" o:spt="75" oreferrelative="t" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" filled="f" stroked="f"> <v:stroke joinstyle="miter"/> <v:formulas> <v:f eqn="if lineDrawn pixelLineWidth 0"/> <v:f eqn="sum @0 1 0"/> <v:f eqn="sum 0 0 @1"/> <v:f eqn="prod @2 1 2"/> <v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelWidth"/> <v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelHeight"/> <v:f eqn="sum @0 0 1"/> <v:f eqn="prod @6 1 2"/> <v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelWidth"/> <v:f eqn="sum @8 21600 0"/> <v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelHeight"/> <v:f eqn="sum @10 21600 0"/> </v:formulas> <vath o:extrusionok="f" gradientshapeok="t" o:connecttype="rect"/> <o:lock v:ext="edit" aspectratio="t"/> </v:shapetype><v:shape id="Picture_x0020_1" o:spid="_x0000_i1025" type="#_x0000_t75" alt="http://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif" style='width:12pt; height:12pt;visibility:visible;mso-wrap-style:square'> <v:imagedata src="file:///D:\Users\BAHONI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\ 01\clip_image001.gif" o:title="wink"/> </v:shape><![endif]--><!--[if !vml]--><!--[endif]--> on my side. I needed a switch with a cover so I found this on Amazon.

Cool thing with this setup is that I can listen to any audio source while getting the readings from magden. I can also connect another Video source since switch box comes with two RCA connectors. I can also have a Car PC via USB drive which I am working on it right now. I will update my progress on that.

Magden is pimp
Switch is homo

 

I agree with Buddiee^

 

Switch is SICKK lol , kinda made for the NOS kick

i would love to put these on my G screen

 

I like the switch, but not the location.

 

Nice. Love the switch. Looks like the one i have to arm the forward stinger missiles.

 

Love the switch! Fire when ready!

 

if it was relocated to a NOS'd out Civic it might be more at home
