I vote pioneer cause it's pimp. Tinted windows and a kick *** security system should be a good deterent.

I'm personally towards a carputer. They have flip out touch screens as well as in dash units. Picked up an issue of Honda Tuner where they showed you a simple set up for a carputer.

For everyone who recommended the CarPc setup, how are you powering the LCD monitor and the PC? I did a little research and im trying to map out how I'll install it. Im going measure the armrest storage area and see if i can fit one in there. I just don't have a clue on how it'll get powered. A wire going directly from the battery to the PC? A travel adapter would work but it seems kind of messy with so much wires. Anyone have any pictures? Id like to see how the connections are made, that'll be a big visual aid! Everything else seems pretty easy to do.
