Yet Another Nexus 7v2 install...
 

I finally got fed up with stereo shop pricing me from $100-$400 to make a simple bracket/faceplate for my nexus 7.

This was how is looked before the project, wires out in the open.

Went to HD and purchased a poster board. Nothing fancy, it was like $4.49 for a huge sheet.

Played with the area and made a cut out.

Attached magnets to the upper corners of the faceplate and also fitted the nexus 7.

What do you do for adjusting fan/temp while driving?

I'm guessing that hole for the power button of the nexus 7 also allows him to pull the whole panel out to access the fan/tamp controls.

Just like that the others said. The little hole allows me to turn the nexus on/off and also access the controls behind. The faceplate is attached with magnets.
