Thanks to Shapeways we placed our order today for our first 3D print! It will be exciting to get it in and begin fitting soon. It's estimated to arrive mid January so make sure to check back to the thread for more updates.

This is an awesome idea and a great thread, and you're making good progress.
Turns out in car pc's are are a moderately popular thing.
I'm not sure if I'm adding to the discussion or not, but have you seen this:
rcjoycon
It's a steering wheel audio control to USB converter. Our car isn't listed in the compatibility list, however the the 350Z is. I'm not sure if we have resistive controls or not, but looking at other after market controllers the 350Z and the 370Z use the same controller.
The adapter and configuration software is $46 on ebay, $6 for shipping by slow boat from South Korea and ~$23 by EMS.

if you search the forum for rcjoycon you'll see that there are a few peeps using it so it seems to be compatible, there is a version that works for digital and resistive controls so you can get that and you're covered.

This is amazing i hope you can put these into a UK car

I know the push button start would be the wrong way round though

This is something I have been thinking about. Once I have a fully working version here stateside I would like to do the work for a fully mirrored version for right hand drive vehicles.

I have received some of the computer parts as this weekend and I should be receiving the 3d print on Jan 12th! I'm very excited!

Array · 01-03-2016, 04:37 PM

I'm glad this has turned out how it is so far, Keep it up!

We got our package in today! It came in a week and a half early!! So of course we had to take the dash apart and do a quick fitment. There are a few minor fixes that we will have to do. But as you can see it fits great including the vents and the starter button!!

Here are a couple of pics with the dash and monitor.

asorg31 · 01-06-2016, 06:34 PM

And we can't leave you hanging without showing you what it looked like in the dash.

And finally the last pic for tonight was taken with the fitting of the vents and start button. Like a glove!

Parello9 · 01-06-2016, 06:56 PM

bravo sir!

GaleForce · 01-06-2016, 08:11 PM

Nicely done!

Is there anyway to reduce/lower the top section or is that needed to cover the screen bezel?

I like the progress. Keep it up!

If the top part gale is talking about can be rounded a bit.
