In-dash Tablets

[BlkCurrantKord]

I've thought about this -

If I were more tech savvy it'd be a cool thing to do since you could also use it for gauges, engine diagnostics, tuning...etc...

After searching for a little bit I found person that did it, and I think it looks good.

That does look good.

I have always wondered about putting a deck in the lower cubby area, I have the OEM cassette unit for there, that I considered.

Does a standard aftermarket H/U fit in the lower cubby?

Yeah it would fit all you need a is a under dash kit to mount it in.

Following this local guy on Instagram who does high end retrofits and stuff.
Not long ago at all in his Cobalt SS he hooked up a tablet, not sure, mabye Samsung, as his head unit.

Looks real clean and is used as his radio and everything. Even hooked up to the internet.

I bought my navigation unit for, well, navigation. I do love my ipod connectivty, SD cards (saves me burning 100's of CD's per year since I am a music producer) etc. A lot of people hack my unit and do crazy stuff but I have yet to use my DVD player, outside of just testing it out. The main thing I love is all my outputs for my amps, a backup camera that functions while in reverse and the simplicity. I feel like a tablet offers the same in dash as in your hands, it would have to be programed really well to work as I would want while driving. Not trying to be a downer and my navi isn't the best unit in the world but it sounds excellent, better than an expensive Alpine I had before, and has only what I need. If it had more, I would pull over and use it as it was for, much like a tablet or I phone.

Not that this would fit for an Accord dash, but it looks great http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/build-logs-project-install-gallery/140794-ipad-escalade.html

I'll be tackling this in the next week or so. The closest tablet that SHOULD fit is the samsung galaxy tab 7". Ordered a used example from ebay. More to follow...

Find one that's the same size as a double din head unit so you just have to fab it to fit in one of those plastic pieces that the double din unit fits into.
