my tC is X-RATED or How I slammed an XBOX in my tC

Finally got the pics up on the site. The highpoints of the install:

- Gutted the XBOX, swapped the power with a CarPC Intelligent Power supply and rigged a custom power regulator. Why? Because it now runs inverterless and directly off of the 12V battery. No signal noise from an inverter, about a pound lighter (every hp counts, right?), and where is an extra brick going to go in this tiny vehicle anyway??

- Moved internals to locations around the tC. Motherboard and power installed out of sight. All Cables extended 13 feet to reach various points of the vehicle.

- Drives mounted in the glovebox in a custom fg enclosure.

- Power buttons and controller ports re-routed to the center console


What I learned in this DIY project (first time for everything, but it was fun):
- Electrical
- Fiberglassing
- Fabrication
- Sanding, painting
- Patience, man...lots of patience

that is simply amazing.. enough said

 

that install is amazing. So is that webpage you have. You do great work.

 

The install and the pages kick @$$. Very impressed. Love the red interior, btw and just WOW.

 

 

that is beyond awesome...I want to do it to my xbox now lol looks very good.

 

ok, this has to be said... that's ridiculous...

RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME

nice work man!

 

I tried the same thing with my box, sadly, she won't turn on since we took her apart

 

you got some skills both with your computer and car man!

 

noice!

 

You should change the led's to red to match the interior!

 

If Your box is hacked the correct way you can change the led to red without replacing the led. The stock led turns red if the xbox has some sort of loading, hardware issue.

 

OMG!!!!!!! How?!?! That's hella sick! Good job man.

 

Nice work but I have a feeling that is photoshopped. There is only one picture...if it isnt photoshopped then post more pics from every angle.....then I will be convinced

 

I take what I said back. I didnt see the installation pics link. my bad man, anyways, you did an awesome as hell job. clean as hell too

 

You have talent. Best part is how it it fits so well and doesnt look shoty at all

 

So when can you do mine?...lol I'll send you my x-box, well at least the parts that were inside of my xbox...lol

 

Very nice work there! I am impressed!
