[net.auto] Electronics/accessories for autos

Anyone install read INSTALL OR have extensive experience in any electronic
devices?  I know someone who put in a DCS from Sears; Digital Control System --
driving computer -- comes with or without cruise...his is working fine.  Looks
good too.  Talk about cockpits... 

The computer I was looking at was in the JC Whitney cat. (I don't want to
hear it...).  Sears used to sell the same thing.  My friend used to have
that one and said that other than looking 'prototypish' it worked fine.
Anyone have the following:


		- REMOTE radar det.
		- driving computer (they installed or if you're knowledgeable
			about the factory installed version)
		- tiny TV's such as Radio Shacks B&w or color LCD versions
		- sophisticated versions of alarms consisting of:
			- ultrasonic protector
			- glass detectors
			- pagers
			- all personally installed hopefully or are
				knowledgeable about them
		- any accessories like:
			- electronic G-meters
			- other sensors for other purposes such as:
				- mini-radar devices to help prevent frontend/
					rearend collisions
			- temperature sensors
		- communication devices such as:
			- elaborate CB's		
			- scanners
			- mobile telephones and/or mobile modems for portable
				computers
		- elaborate stereo systems
			- did you replace the factory installed speakers?
			- any add on accessories?

Anything else you can think of.

	I have added:

		- modified a LED stereo power meter for my car (modified
			it for car power instead of house current)
		- CB
		- an additional fluid monitor for rear washer
		- glass detector and pager for alarm
