I sure hope it comes in English as well.
Did you mean it is sure it wouldn't affect the warranty? Or did you mean you are not sure about the warranty?
I installed a little media center computer in my Model Y:
With the main purpose being to entertain the kid on long drives. We have used a tablet before, but guess what happens after an episode ends? Kid freaks out. So we needed a way to control the back screen from the passenger seat. We used several remote desktop apps before, but they all relied on wifi or hotspots and were just a pain to use. So a better, more direct solution was required.
The setup consists of a mini pc (MeLE Quieter3C Intel Celeron N5105 ) that is powered from the 12v socket in the rear bin. Two touch screens, one 8" and one 10.5" from Waveshare for input and viewing. The 8" one fits perfectly into the front bin as long as you modify the casing for the wires to come underneath, rather than the side. The cables go underneath the trim and come out on the driverside to then feed back into the rear bin. Would be neater if I drilled a hole in the back bin to get the cables out, but I wanted to avoid that. With the lid closed, you can barely see the wires anyway.
Software-wise, the pc runs Windows 11 with Jellyfin as a media server and Chrome configured to autostart in Kiosk mode to access the library. I am running FreeFileSync and their watcher script to monitor a folder on my NAS and any new files are directly copied onto a 1TB SSD inside the media center pc. Jellyfin then picks them up automatically and pull the cover art.
The 12v socket on the car turns off when it goes to sleep, so the pc is configured to hibernate after 10 minutes of inactivity. It is also configured via the bios to boot once power is restored and it only takes a few seconds for the system to start once the car is turned on.

Hi Thera,
How did you go with the PPF? How were you able to get that to ship to Aus? I visited the site and they only ship to US and Canada, unless I've gone to the wrong store.

I just discovered that being unduly enthusiastic when on leave results in some questionable purchases. I am not, however, disappointed with the Y model accessories I purchased online and I didn't even get so much as a raised brow from my better half when I nonchalantly mentioned I've just gone back for thirds. Got most of the below from local webstore Tessories and no complaints with their products or customer service - chatted with Joel who runs it and seems like a decent chap who'll do the righty. I have some boot storage bins, front trunk liner, boot liner and lower boot linger on the way.

Delivered and Lovin it!
O' to have such an understanding partner! We have a very "adroit" conversation every time this happens! with comments such as "I didn't know that purchasing an $80k car, you would require you to spend $20k on accessories! She does like to embellish the story when having this type of "Discussion" with me, especially in public. As Dad said to me when I was a single man, "A man must pay for his pleasure"
standard 'joke' in our house is "I didn't know you were building it part by part. Is that why your EDD is Jan-March as that is when all the parts will be finished arriving and you'll put it together?" lol!
Thankfully DH buys far more car parts/accessories than I do so it literally is just joking around.

All good to hear these good reports. I just wish other vendors would stop spamming this thread with their ads.
Pretty sure they pay to be allowed to do that, which supports the forum.
When originally started, TMC was entirely volunteer supported, and IIRC ran on a free forum site, but as it grew it became too big for the free site deals and has been moved a number of times to different host sites. As a result the costs to run the site grew as well. Please note that even today Moderators remain unpaid and I don’t think anyone makes a living from this website.
I can confirm that funding for this site is based on contributions from Vendors, who are the only commercial entities able to talk about the goods and services they offer, as well as contributions from Members.
P.S. I am a moderator only and play no role in the administration of the site, this is just my, possibly imperfect, understanding.
