There is hands free through the head unit. Pair up the phone and it over rides the tablet during calls like any normal system.

Can you do video of the dialing, making and receiving calls. Does it use the phonebook on from the phone?

Yeah I can show you some of that tomorrow.


FYI ELA is the UI I designed for another car on Windows CE and I am now working on it for Android.

Should be on the Play Store in the near future.

You can hook up a USB-DAC (Custom Kernel) but the next issue you stumble on will be charging the device. I'm still reading up on that bit before I go ahead.

Sorry, I didn't take any picture inside during installation .
There are two point blocking inside. left one is easy one but right one is thick & hard to remove .

That fascia adaptor is just thick paper of desk calendar.

I cut the paper & attach 3M carbon sheet to it. It looks cooler than I thought . =)

Is there any chance I could get a reply from you to the PM, I sent you a bit back. Even if its to say no thanks.

I have some ideas for infotainment UI/UX, that is not present in your design and I am seriously looking for someone to partner with on the creation of an app like this.

Here is a mockup of what I currently have running on my tablet.

I pulled apart the center stack last night and had a look at that metal bar. No way I'm going to go and cut that, you my friend have serious balls.

I'm going to put together a new thread with my install. Still having an issue deciding on headunit since they are so expensive in comparison to ordering online. Only problem is if I order from US, I'm pretty sure FM radio frequency not going to be in the same range.

Mind posting a picture of said metal bar? I was hesitant to mount the single din down there when he said it involved cutting metal. Curious to see what exactly is in the way. Thanks

I am having a local shop re-locate the face plate of the head unit down there. No cutting. But the obvious issue is the complexity of the relocation.

Sorry, I didn't take any photo's but I'm sure sometime next week I will get my stuff from Amazon and start test fitting stuff. will grab snap's as I want to put together a DIY.
@Dezoris - That's a cool idea. shouldn't be to difficult just solder the pins to cable and solder them to the faceplate.
