Sat Nav / Tablet, got some ideas for ICE..

Post by Jay18 » Tue May 07, 2013 10:46 am

i got a sat nav / tablet thing for christmas and have just noticed it has a av input for a camera, which has given me a cool idea!

i have bought a lead and will be testing to see if my xbox will work on it, if so then that has given me a great idea!

i have a iphone and i can buy a lead to connect the sat nav to it so it will work as a monitor for that aswel, and since i have tv catchup, netflix, bbc iplayer etc on my iphone so i can watch films on it...

also i may buy another xbox 360 to fit into the car, which i think would be pretty cool, maybe even invest in a mac mini...

i know all of this would be no good for most of you as alot of you all go wading so it would drown all the ICE lol but im going for a more of a light offroad sporty style with mine, but dont worry i am not affraid to take her up green lanes, aslong as there are no deep puddles lol

what do you think to this idea?

Hmmm, pimp your Zuk!

All you need to add is a decent flat screen on the inside of the back door!

Sounds like a sweet idea, everyones Zuk is different bud.

Would get some uprated security.

A Xbox 360 will scratch its disc if it is even slightly jogged while powered up although they will probably be cheap as chips when the new one is announced on the 21st.

The problem with any newer equipment is they generally don't like running on a dirty supply so you need a pure sine wave inverter which are a little more expensive.

If it was me I would just get a Nokia N900 which has TV out, an amazing OS map app not available on any other platform, and will emulate PS1 and all the old Sega and Nintendo stuff and all of it can be controlled via bluetooth using a PS3 controller.

thanks guys! cable should be here soon so i can test it and see if it works, if so then i may get a flat screen for the boot, not sure how far to go with it yet, i know i want to put a good sound system in it, i was thinking about 2 15" subwwofers but i think they would do alot of damage to my zuk lol so im thinking of another 10" kenwood typhoon so i have a pair, then two 6x9's in the rear door panel and some speakers in the front doors and im even thinking of power windows ;)

proper luxury zuk!

ive got central locking and an alarm and immobiliser to fit, going to double immobilise it and im going to fit a battery cut off switch which ive had for ages but not got round to fitting lol

as i said shes a light offroad toy but also a bit luxury ;)

if i install all my games onto the xbox then the disc only needs to spin on startup... so no worries of bumps...

okay cable hasn't come yet but if it does work then I need I know something...

my iPhone 3GS has a personal hotspot feature but only work through USB and Bluetooth, so if I was to use the Xbox live then I would need wifi if some sort,

so I'm thinking if I get a Internet dongle wifi hub and connect my iphone via USB and turn on hotspot would my iphone then work as a dongle?

if anyone has done this and can help me it will be brilliant if not then I will have to risk paying the £25 for a hub to test it with...
