Designing the best car audio system for the TP
 

Let's design the best car audio system featuring the HTC Touch Pro as the centerpiece.

In addition to audio, we will install an LCD screen to take advantage of the TP's Tv-Out feature. Which will have two main benefits A) movies B) Google Maps GPS

With this concept in mind, I'm just getting started and would like to figure out a couple things including:

- what kind of LCD display would work best ? Remember it needs to have a composite input for the TP and should be a reasonable size that it can be mounted on the dash somewhere

- what kind of deck would you buy ? Should have bluetooth in case you want to connect wirelessly, but certainly the AUX port is a must. In addition, perhaps the deck can also connect to the LCD display or include an LCD display of it's own to kill 2 birds with one stone. Furthermore, if it connects to the LCD display it might as well have DVD playback.

Anyway - that's the idea, and I think this might also interest a lot of other TP users who are wanting to build the best car audio/display system featuring the Touch Pro. Would like your feedback & ideas.

I'm definitely interested.

I think there is a thread around here somewhere about how people use their Touch Pros, and I know a few people have it going with some nice audio set ups...Sorry I am too lazy to search for it though.

Needs divx playback. A dvd player without divx is useless! Haha. Also why not a micro sd reader for those with extra cards?

Check out my sig. I have a TP-Pro hooked up with my Range Rover Sport's OEM Nav screen.Works just fine with GPS and google maps

Could just go with an Azentek Dual Din Car PC. You would be able to pair the TP to it and use it's navi on the Azentek's screen.

I use an Eclipse double din NAV/DVD head unit with both XM & Sirius/bluetooth/aux in etc etc etc, hooked to four Infinity sep component speakers & two seperate sub systems (multi AMP).

When I plug my Touchpro into my Proclip bracket, it charges the phone & automatically hooks the video/audio out to the 7" screen so I can watch 200 cable TV channels there from my Slingbox or watch ripped DVD movies from my 16 gig card......

yea, if you could buy one

I'd like to do the same thing. Is it possible to use a touchscreen monitor to control the device? I've been thinking of doing a carputer or something like just using the TP but i'd be awesome if i could incorporate a touch monitor so I could have my phone in my center and out of the way
