I agree with GrafTrahula, XBMC has a VERY nice interface, but I would honestly just replace the radio box with a newer one with an AUX port, then get a male to male 3.5mm headphones jack, and assuming you have an iPod, plug one end into the iPod, and the other into the AUX port. Then just select your song on the iPod.

@XW0RKS: It's no different then any other computer. It's an Intel processor (all though Debian will run on pretty much any processor type). The hardest part was getting the touchscreen calibrated. And I'm betting that would be easy now then it was when I originally installed that computer 3 years ago.

@metalx1000 Sorry, my question was not put out right... At a moment I thought that system is runned on DVD player that has the touch screen. Sorry about that. I was browsing your blog today and man I found a lot of good scripts, what I wona say, I'm taking you as my teacher for bash scripting since I was planing to learn it. I'm hopping you'll help me when I would need some scripts with this kind of project, what do you say ?

@XW0RKS: Oh I see. No it's just a screen run to a computer under the seat with a special power supply and case. I'm here if you have any question about BASH. And I have plenty of BASH tutorial. But, please also check out my IRC channel. There are a handful of helpful people in there and you'll have a better chance of getting an answer with more people working on an answer. The IRC channel is #filmsbykris and we are on freenode.

@rob3342421: I would have used a netbook in the glove box if they existed at the time. :)
