Looks great (but I'm not sure you can make the "world's first" claim...TurboDMan may have beaten you by a few years.)

I mostly use the system while the car is running, the monitor does not use that much power and the Pc is a Laptop so once the laptop battery is charge I can cut the car off so only the monitor is using the car battery.

He may not have been internet ready at the time he installed it but it's a no-brainer that he could install a cellular network card (as you did). He already had the hardware, etc.

Not to take away anything from your great job but clearly, as time goes by, these installations will become smaller, etc. That's a given.

to both of you guys!
