Seems like a lot of work to listen to music and have a GPS. What else could you do with it? It didn't looks as if he had anything other than the game pad and touch screen to control the unit. Could you adjust your tune on the fly?

Very clean instal though.

I think the usefulness of the install is all dependent on how good he is with computer software, I'm not sure if there is on the fly tuning software for the focus, but I've heard of people writing software that is capable of doing it.

And to make the system more useful and wireless keyboard and mouse would be pretty simple to add, kinda would make it a mobile office, if you had an internet connection of some sort.

all it needs is to be hooked up to SVT Deans screen and it would be the perfect install.
