Hi folks,
Just wondering if anybody has any experience with using a raptor dash along with one these pumpkin radios? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pumpkin-Touchscree...reo+screen Seems like it would be a good fit? I'm buying a raptor dash tomorrow anyway, but thinking the single din adjustable screen could be a very good solution to a pants std radio (TD5 BY THE WAY). I tried the search function, but nothing. Cheers Andy |

Make sure you get the Android version, The Windows CE 6.0 Operating System is about as obsolete as you can get.

No, sorry. I had never heard of it so I was curious and had a look at your link. i was pretty surprised that one option was to run Win CE 6.0, Win CE was superseded about 4 years ago and I'm not even sure that 6.0 was the latest then.

Hi folks,
Half way through my dash install, thought I would post some pictures of progress so far. Note, I have not bought the pumpkin radio yet, thought I would do that next month instead. My late 2000 model year TD5 110 SW had the larger wiring conduit, so had a bit of trimming to do.  Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Will post some more pictures later today after I finish. I know I'm quite lethargic when it comes to this stuff I tend to take about 3x longer to do the job as I end up spending a lot of time drinking tea 😀 I also managed to remove old redundant winch wiring that somebody had installed (poorly) I'm much happier when I know that wires are not just cut off and left hanging behind the dash - seriously, aparantly that's acceptable! Just have to buy a couple of wiring connectors and some more cable and I can extend the hazard light and heated windscreen switches from my knee to the new dash. I might also have to modify the gear stick and turn it a few splines as its close to the dash, not touching but will see if needed when I pop to the shops today. Cheers Andy |

Dash mostly complete, just need to add a few switches, hazards, fog, heated window.
I had to move the RWW switch as I kept knocking it on each time I changed gear. Some photos as promised. Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge Click image to enlarge |
