Where to fabricate an input device on a 5th gen (pics inside)
I'm building a CarPC with a touch screen, and want to have a tactile way of changing volume/controlling the cpu with macros, etc. I plan on using one of these

Here's a picture to give an idea of how large it is

If you were in my position, where would YOU mount it? I've seem to run out of ideas on this one... (I have an AT if it matters)

Maybe I can go with something smaller .. does anyone know of any "barebones" volume control ***** (preferably interfaced through USB?)

Are you 100% set on using that particular ****? There are other (smaller) ways to get input signals to your car PC. Doesn't have to be a ****. Is this for volume control only or for general user input as well?

Good idea with the door, might not be a bad idea to use a smaller **** in the door panel (where the windows are). Will read up on how to route wires through the door.

Not difficult but you have to drill through the door jamb on the car side, then just cut a small slit in the existing grommet and run it into the door.
