The computer is located under the passenger seat and runs Centrafuse software on XP or Windows 7.

The price quoted for the system is a £1286 - not sure exactly what that includes

This is an interesting component from the same site:

It plugs into a USB port and allows you to control up to 8 different devices (amps, door locks etc) though your computer. It costs £78 from this website (not that I am recommending you buy anything from this particular site!!!)

Now with one of these, you could get the carputer to start your car and get the demisters and heaters going while you are still drinking your early morning coffee in the comfort of your warm kitchen on a cold winter day

I have sent them an email asking if they have an English speaker as the controls shown in the pictures are from a 2001LX and so there may be hope for us with factory nav and HVAC to change and not be concerned about the dreaded black screen.
