Do you insert the DVD's, CD's through your regular CD player stock with car?
As far as wifi access points, i dont know of any except like some Border's book stores, starbucks, hotels, etc... I would assume to download the latest traffic info, weather, etc u need to be near one? What do you use?

There has got to be male to female IDE ribbon adapters out there...

Looks like man! one thing, in this pic, be sure to open that back up and run some heavy plastic over the newly stretch hole...otherwise, when it rain, it'll leak down into that hole and into your cabin, right onto your ECU and passenger floor board. TRUST ME.
Thats funny.......I just finished mine a while back and my setup is also very similar. I just posted mine too. I have been tweaking with the software and os for a while so if theres anything I can help you out with ..feel free.

Very nice job.
A few questions.
How do you play video, through a dvd? If so where is it mounted and what type of player is it?
How does the phone service work, is it via bluetooth? Can that Centrafuse software support that?
How does the weather report work, do you need internet access to update each time?
How does the Traffic reporting work, does it tie in to the GPS and do you need to have internet access to update?
Can you play TV on this PC?
Is Centrafuse software better than Cyote's media center?
Sorry for so many questions.
