What did you use for power?
Meaning how did you wire up the outlet to work off your 12v line?

Thanks again for the comments, everyone. and thank you for your understanding, admin.

As for the power supply, I just used a 12v DC power supply that came with a mini-ITX enclosure that i was originally going to use. then I simply added the voltage regulator (and integrated power control unit) to prevent possible damage to the motherboard because your battery doesn't always put out a constant 12v... it can either spike up dangerously high or drop dangeriously low.

I did. But I won't be owning a car once I leave this country. It's so much hassle to own a car in Japan because everything is just too expensive.
so yea it's kinda pointless for me to keep this thing.
