Woah

If you can someone pull this off, I would be interested in doing something like this

 

I saw a thread a couple months ago that had a YouTube vid attached, showing an Ipad install in a dash. Not sure if it was here or on DIYMA. Sweet install regardless, and look forward to lots of pics of yours when you've finished!

I'll have ya beat in 2 weeks. I'm installing my galaxy note II on the lower portion of my navigation.
Pretty simple honestly.
1. Purchase device
2. Remove CD player behind nav.
3. purchase note II dock
4. Cut hole big enough to fit dock through in the CD player area of navigation panel
5. Mold
6. Wait for mold to cure/harden
7. Insert note II in dock
8. Win car shows

 

By the way your friend will have enough cable to run the emergency flasher button and clock to the bottom.
I've taken the radio controls out 7 times now... The cable will be long enough for his plans to move the flasher and clock down.... Everything else he has planned.... Well, I'd like to see how he pulls it off on a NON-nav dash.

 

Yes I will post up once he starts working on it.

And I love your 1-8. Post pics!!!!

 

Thanks, I sure will. Looking forward to your future thread with pics too.

 

Step 1 through 7 is good, not sure about step 8.

 

one question, not that i'm interested in doing this, but what's the point of having it so low?? its unusable in that place.

 

I've seen the "Fishman" do this on YouTube. It's pretty cool.

 

was pretty cool how it just synced it without having to physically be plugged in, some of the stuff is unnecessary though haha

 

that dudes truck is VIPed out!!

 

Stupid question of the day.

If you run a mini Ipad for navigation, does it need a data plan for the mapping software???

I need Nav in my car and the factory $2,000 option is pricey.

 

Yes you would
