Another mod to my ZDX: car computer this time

Since Acura navi does not work anywhere except US & Canada (well maybe China too but this doesn't help me ) I added a Windows CE6 based car computer connected to the stock multi-function display. It was done by a tech who knows stuff in Acrua MFD system, wiring, voltage etc. so its not a DIY thing. Usual functions and menu is still fully active and switches to car computer mode and back easily. Whole stuff is controlled by the stock joystick which acts as a mouse. Not as convenient as a touch screen but still pretty nice. So now I have a number of navigation programs, Internet via USB-modem, even Opera browser which I would never use in a car device, and, more important, a video player, so now I can play movies from a flash drive.

For now beside the computer thing - LED DRL and parking lights/turn signal bulbs, Hella LED DRL bar in the bumper, front side markers re-wired to turn signal wire, HID fogs, orange rear LED turn signals, dashboard meter and climate contron ECU swap to canadian version, window and rear reflector tint. Waiting for 21' DPE wheels to arrive for summer and new color matching LED bulbs for DRL and parking lights/turn signal.

And planning to make custom exhaust and supercharge my baby somewhere in future
