Just curious on how you are getting the internet? Wireless network just hoping that you are in range of a signal ?

All - Thanks..

Deric - No, haven't read the 3M threads, but will check it out.

Wireless internet: Sprint wireless 1.5Mbps broadband for $40/mo. I download stuff at about 150kb/second (1200kbps) pretty routinely and upload rate is about 20-30kb/s. Great service. Overkill for the car? Maybe, but 0% frustration when I'm lost or when I need to look up movie listings, or read picture-heavy mustang forum posts while waiting at the airport. Also works great as backup internet for the home - I just bring the USB dongle inside when a storm knocks out Comcast.

edit: Also.. they have great coverage.. I had broadband speeds about 60%-70% of the way up/down I-95 from central Florida to Maryland. And at least dialup speeds for 95% of the way. Very few "no internet" areas. Was surprised to find broadband access in some seriously bumble-f*** places..

Hey do you have any more pics of the rear back board that you built I think for your amp? I'm trying to get the dimensions to build a board from the plastic pieces in my rear trunk near the back seats of my 07 mustang. Trying to do that to mount my 2 huge *** amps too. then build a sub box

Yeah.. I actually have a CAD file that I used to determine how big I wanted it, but unfortunately it was somewhere between 1 and 3 or 4 inches too wide - I don't remember, and I trimmed it down and forgot to record the new dimensions.

I may have it written down somewhere, I'll let you know when I find it.. feel free to keep reminding me if I forget, because I may...

RoadRunner (open source/free) - search www.mp3car.com for the latest version. The guy who created the software is on that forum and goes by "guino."

Logo: Searched google images for a Mustang logo, found a good one, and stuck it on the front-end software (roadrunner).
