I was just browsing the web when i stumbled upon this. I was curious has anyone ever seen this before. I have an 03 infiniti g35 WITHOUT THE NAV and to me this looks AMAZING - its a 7' screen/housing that fits where the STOCK nav should be... Guys whatta you think - for 600 bucks i feel like ordering it now but i need to know what u fellas think...

NOTE: THIS IS THERE SITE - NOT THE RIGHT LINK TO THE SCREEN, simply click on

I think you are getting what you pay for. It looks kind of cheap to me.... sorry to burst your bubble.

Fortunately, you're an idiot, and thus, your opinion matters very little.

That screen, and the Digital Wheelz/god_of_cpu housing is quite well manufactured, and is probably the closest you can come to a stock look for a in dash screen. The screen is made by Xenarc, and can be either a plain VGA/RGB screen, or can be a touchscreen. The housing looks stock, and about the only thing missing is motorized pull out. You have to manually pull out the screen, but it locks into place. When closed, you can't tell there is anything there, which is important if you leave your car in not so nice neighborhoods.

You still, of course, have to get some sort of source, whether a computer, a DVD player, or a one piece navigatin solution, so the screen is not the only thing you need to buy. Search both this forum, and the forums at www.mp3car.com for more information.

Agreed!

I have the DigitalWheelz housing & screen and it's awesome. I have not had a chance to permenantly install it yet (as is with 100% of my carPC) but the quality of manufacturing is excellent, as is the look when integrated with the rest of the interior.

Plus Chuck is a real nice guy (have communicated with him a few times over email).

Yes it is a lot of money, but as filipm said, you get what you pay for, which in this case is a lot for a little. Compare the DigitalWheelz price with getting a Xenarc 7" screen custom installed. Custom install is going to run you a lot more than even $800 and it probably won't look as stock.

If you're looking for the "Fast & Furious" look, look elsewhere, DigitalWheelz is not for you (at least not now...hopefully not ever).

wow you guys are really defensive... makes me feel liek you are trying to convince yourself's of something. All I said was it looks cheap, and it does, at least in the pictures I saw. The price is really cheap, I've seen much better looking screens and fittings, at much more expensive prices. I suppose that some people just have higher standards than others. No reason for you to hate. I dont remember calling anyone names.... But cause of the harshness of your messages.... You guys are mindless hypocrates...

Some people haven't been around long enough, so quit with the name calling. Secondly, don't get your panties up in a bunch xxxsinxxx cause thats ONLY the screen, add in a DVD player/PS2 and an AUX sound input whether it's the PAC AAI-NIS or an FM modulator....now talking about cheap....atleast it is'nt this...(no offense to G35BracketRacer):
