Great car you got there, djshag69! Hondas are really cool looking cars, no matter how you customize them. Good luck with the show, hope you win first prize. :D

Dude, that's one snazzy car! And that's coming from someone who doesn't like Hondas (me :oops: )!

Love that scanner! How did you get that nice light blue color? Goes great with the car. :)

That's a hot ride you've got there. It's nice to see a blue scanner for a change, too. Do you find yourself getting pulled over a lot?

Well I dont really drive with it on, The way the scanner is hooked up it goes to a controller from like a little cpu which can control modes and the speed of the scanning. Cops in NJ dont really cut anyone much slack so i can't take that risk.

I like it, especially since you apparatently used a car you already have, all except the neon and the headlight covers. Blue is cool with the white.

That is one sweet ride. A blue voice box on the inside would look really cool too. Are you gonna go all digital with the dash?

i definitely wanna incorporate the blue voice box. I am guessing i would buy a normal voicebox and use blue plexiglass, the same way the front scanner works.

I think a blue vox would be excellent! :) A neighbor of mine said he knows a guy who has a car that calls him by name when the guy gets in the door and stuff. :) I hope some day to see that car! :lol:

hahahaha, right now im actually working on a custom system for her, and building the trunk myself. Next will be the interior, so you think blue plexiglass over a nomal voicebox will do the trick?

Want an AI? Try http://www.zabaware.com/ I have the full version. You can edit the brain and add your own stuff in VBScript. I'm hoping to use this or my own AI programming for Dryden.

think i should recreate the kitt dash inside my honda accord, or just incorporate the voice module into the currect dash?

another quiestion i had is the 8 buttons next to the voice module (4 on each side), can those actually be used as power switches?

hey that is quite a cool car! i love the scanner and the color.

unfortunately i dont know enough about car building or enough about KTITS design (though i wish i did) to help you out.

however, it could be possible that you could use those buttons as power switches/or activators. That would probably a lot of installation/programming in itself im sure.

Heh, when i finally get my own car, im hoping to start my own project in making a car like KITT.but all of what youre doing would be a hell of a lot of work for me!
