Featured Replies

Yeh, im using CF2, but i presumed the inbuilt maps would be useless?

im not sure not tried, but got the UK/Ireland maps

Il have a look for it and let you know

Where abouts in Coventry you from?

I only went to uni there for 4 years, just moving down to london atm. Spent 3 years around Earlsdon (Torinos/Ramada Inn) and the a year down by the vauxhall garage/cash & carry.

Are you around Cov, I've seen a car just like your before (i was en route to M69/tescos etc) around the area! ;)

yeah was more then likely me dude :)

im from the walsgrave area but i mooch about everywhere lol

I used to drive past walgraves weekly seeing family/girlfriend etc. I had a deep loathing for those traffic lights at the 4 way stops, always used to catch me & with cameras on them I always ended up dropping the anchors at the last minute as they flicked to amber!

One problem I am having with my carPC is wiring the AMP. How did you get your power lead to your battery? I have searched my octy for a way of wiring it but can't find any nook or cranny to get the cable through the dashboard to the battery!

Why not just mount an iPad in there instead?

Because I don't want to pay that much for a brand, it is far far too limited for what I want, it would have steal me stamped all over it & I flat out hate the things! But aisde from that....no :p

There's a grommet from near the pollen filter to the back of the glovebox.
