iPad in Legacy dash

[neil2121]

Probably works for lots of cars but here\'s an iPad installed into a BH Legacy. Very tempting...

Id been toying with the idea for a while, but im very fussy over the finished look with things like that.. But the fitment to the 3rd gen dash is perfect!

[mattapo]

Agreed.

But if you can get a spare dash like they did you can always refit back to factory before re-sale?

I\'ll stick with my windscreen mount for the transformer

Ipads = 4:3 which is crap to begin with not to mention portrait mode.

Dedicated for GPS/music/internet browsing would be fine, but I\'d have trouble justifying it for just that with a gorgeous screen in my car begging for movies and music videos.

Also the idea of windows tablets is making me wet

You really need to get out more!

[Greaver]

heh I do, I just like to take my s*** with me : D

I forgot to mention, I had multiple screens in my cars over the years and half the reason I use the tablet mounted to the windscreen now is that using touchscreens mounted low is pure balls - in the Legacys at least unless you have long arms and like cuddling the steering wheel its extremely awkward to use them at that height and angle.

I view it the same way as texting, I would never go back to non touchscreen but it was super easy to use the old phones for texting and calls without having to actually dedicate concentration to the mechanics of it.

This is what I have currently, obviously it has a big ugly mount on the windscreen but it takes two seconds to attach, and puts it well within reach. I also like retaining my headunit and 1 din cubbys : D

Once again I will post a link to these guys

It is a head unit powered by android with the extra bonus of the detachable front being a tablet
