awesome...i know scosche is making some dash kits capable of housing ipads.. but nothing for lexus...as of yet...apple has denied after market adapters for now so most will wind up being 1off for the near future...
but im really impressed w/their work..
i guess i'll be forced to ipad my LS now...

Well, i just had the idea pop into my head about mounting my ipad 2 somewhere in my 460 so that i could use it like i usually use my iphone for Pandora and other streaming radios and videos as well. So, i did i quick search to see if anyone has done it before or if there is anything made especially for the ls460 and i came across this product...http://padholdr.com/lexus/ipad-holde...-lexus-ls460l/
its a cool looking mounting bracket that seems to be legit. so my question is has anyone tried this out or have any other ideas for putting the ipad in a reachable place that is out of the way??
this car was posted back awhile ago and it has this cool ipad integration where it mechanically slides out of the center storage unit (there is a video and some pics of it on this page http://jmcustomcreations.com/ride-11ls460l.aspx )
it would be pretty sweet to find a way to mount it like that but without the mechanical sliding thing
so ya just wanted to share my thoughts an wanted to see if anyone has done something like this or has any cool ideas on how to do it

I really love such a positioning:

Cool!!! I really like the 1st one? Do you know where I can get that extension piece from? That and the last picture of the one on the steering wheel are both awesome. The one on the steering wheel would be pretty sweet especially for the long drives I have How would you mount the steering wheel thing? I'm guessing there is some sort of double-sided tape or some thing with Velcro on the back.

those look like great ideas (in theory) but if u do choose to use any of these up front ideas.. try to keep them up above the dash so u can still see the road... im really getting tired of people driving (an drifting) 20mph lower than the speed limit...while sending text msgs.... checking your facebook status at 65mph isnt REALLY a good idea..

The last one with the Startrek commander spoofs the Apple jerks. It hides the steering wheel buttons and especially the airbag is not longer working as it should be.

I went ahead and bought it. I think it's the best solution for me... but I also like the cupholder one too...http://www.ebay.com/itm/360399304812...#ht_1395wt_917
i might get that if I didn't like the floor mount one... both are pretty cool...anyways can't wait to see how it turns out hope it's not to flimsy
o BTW here is a link to the one I bought...http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ht_5656wt_1197

[QUOTE=lamar411;6796892]Post pictures when you get it please, but how sturdy do you think it will be?[/QUOTE
Definitely will post pics once I get it on. Should be here in about a week hopefully. I just hope that it won't be shaky when driving and will be sturdy enough for me to poke at it

just got it - easy to put together - tried it in the car and it is a perfect fit. Allows the ipad 2 to be positioned horizontal or vertical.
nice product for long trips - have a cupholder for my iphone 4s which i use day to day.
by the way: if any of you use an iphone or ipad in your car - get the bongiovi pds app. it enhances the sound for streamed or connected music and makes the music sound very, very good coming through the speaker system.
