Hello, I?m a new member on this forum. I don?t have an RV , but I do own a Subaru Forester . This is my CarPC that I have installed in it. I?m posting it here because I would think that people with RVs would be interested in such a setup since you guys travel around the country/states. If any of you have any questions, ore are interested in a similar setup for your RV, please let me know by sending me an email or PM. Thanks.
I started everything by creating a diagram of how everything was going to be connected and setup. In the end, the setup came out almost the same as the diagram. Only a few changes were made.

After purchasing the 7? touch screen, I started molding it onto the dash piece of the Forester. I?m really proud of the results

I also added a nice infrared backup camera. This enables me to park the Forester with ease. It?s also nice because I can even see at night being infrared, even though there is not much visible light.
