You don't have to buy a new luxury SUV or mini-van to get the benefits of an in-car media personal computer; you can just hack your current vehicle.

On a long road trip, keeping the family engaged, entertained, and most importantly quiet, can make or break what could be a tension-filled experience. With a little geek ingenuity, planning and hacking, you can get the flashy entertainment tools found in many new family car models in your older, yet still serviceable, fly-ride. These example hacks from the book Car PC Hacks: Tips & Tools for Geeking Your Ride, by Damien Stolarz show you how to install power connectors throughout your vehicle and how to customize the video experience for each passenger.
