You have to use a smaller tablet. AND STILL would need great experience in dash cutting, modifying, etc. But IMO it would look nice ONLY if you pulled it off with a stock professional look. Like if it was meant to be in there. Try using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3. I believe it's only 7 inches. Smaller then an iPad but is just as functinal. Maybe the tablet model I mentioned is bigger then I said, then it would be the prior model to that. Anyhow, Good Luck bro and I hope you pull it off successfully!

unfortunately Lalo, he probably isnt.... but with how many threads he has made in the last month or so, he may find something to be the first on.

this is what I did

tablet (google nexus)
aux cable to rca cable (amazon)
amplifier 2500+w to run to all speakers four channel or more
a wired 12v ignition source for your micro usb charger
a dremmel to shave off the excess plastic

connectors
speaker wire
and a lot of time

the end result is all of your friends claiming you have a car disorder and saying you ball outta control and wanting you to come and pick em up in a butlers uniform(aka a penguin suit) so they can impress there date aka someones mom and or hooker
