Hmm. Does anyone know where to get custom car parts made? What I’m looking for specifically is a replacement center console cover for a 2000 Grand Am. There’s lots of room in the center console, and I want to move the fan controls down a bunch and have room for an 8″ or so touch screen LCD. There would be plenty of room behind the console to add a PC\/104-based computer, which would be booted from CompactFlash, and the music could be stored on a FireWire or USB 2.0 hard drive in the trunk. I think the whole thing could be put together for under $500, and it’d be really nice to have a completely custom system like this. It might even be possible to add a radio tuner.<\/p>\n
Or, I could just rerip all my music to MP3 and get either an mp3-enabled stereo or an iPod. I think the iPod might be cheaper at this point, as my stereo already has line level ins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
