Introduction
With this tutorial you will be able to make your own car-pc by using the Raspberry Pi 2. All credits for this Car PC System goes to Andrei Istodorescu (official link), I only made a more detailed "how to tutorial" here. The following guide is only for the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B board!
Features of the Raspberry Car Pc System:
7inch Touchscreen Monitor (I used an 9inch panel for my system)
50 Watt x 4 Channel audio amplifier
USB drive support
Can play all video and music files
GPS with navigation program
FM radio with RDS support
Two rotary buttons to control next/previous music/fm station and volume up/down
WiFi usb dongle to connect to the internet
Access to Youtube and more video/music websites
Rear camera support
Bugs:
Noise in sound - Waiting noise filters
USB cd/dvd drive - Maybe a power problem
Greek language support in navigation app

I designed and made an Arduino based system with the ATtiny85 micro controller to make sure that the system will auto shutdown with safety when you turn off the car-battery. Also this system can handle the power cut-off when you starting the car engine for just a few seconds. Make sure to read the licence policy here.
