Thanks bro!!
Well I did some work on the car today. I decided while I was ordering new lights I would take apart the old ones and have fun. So I took a bunch of SC projectors I had laying around and I figured why not start practicing to retro fit. haha it looks insane. When I finish ill post up some pics...
I also started the carpc stuff. I'm almost done with the bezel. It needs to be filled with some body filler, sanded down, primed and painted with flat black. You can see I did a quick paint to bring out some of the imperfections
The front end i'm using is Centrafuse. I ordered a bluetooth dongle and an OBD-II to usb reader since the front end pulls OBD-II stats and displays them nicely. It also lets ur phone connect thru bluetooth which is pretty hot.
Here's a quick crappy shot of the bezel in progress...

Curry, when and where did you get this car? I just wondering if you have any diamonds in the rough hanging around? I'm looking for 2GS either black or white
I remember you had the SC on the Toyotanation sites.

Ok I finally got everything going today. I did a quick test fit of everything and so far so good. Still a few minor things to do to get everything cleaned up.
- Tucked the laptop away
- Installed all the power/ground lines
- Test fit the bezel
- Tested the GPS
- Tested touch screen
I'm waiting on the USB to OBD-II cable to arrive as well as the bluetooth dongle.
The bezel still needs some work which I am about to go do right now.

Well I got a ton of crap done in the last two days. I finally finished up the CarPC and its working great. I used a broken Averatec mini laptop I got from Circuit City for $1.00.. LOL. All it had was a broken screen.
I still need to finish the bezel up and install my bluetooth dongle and OBD-II cable. The bluetooth will connect to the frontend giving me a display on the screen of my contacts and let me make calls without taking my iphone out of my pocket.
The OBD-II will pull stats.
Video of access control: (wont let you use the pc without the code, and i stole the screen from transporter lol)
