x2! I want to run my single din for the SQ but want the tablet + torque. This would be perfect aside from ... can you get CDs in without hitting the shifter?

Too bad the Nexus 7 doesn't support MHL or we could get audio through USB. (MHL to HDMI to SPDIF)

Yobiwan · 12-08-2012, 06:40 PM

I use iphone for music source. so CD inserting was not my priority.
.
when shiter is in 1,3,5,or neutral , cant' CD in . but shiter is in 2,4,6 u can use CD.

Perfect! I don't use CDs often but at the very least being able to is a huge thing, even if it involves moving the shifter down to do it, thats good enough for me!

Do you have any other pictures from the build to post up? Maybe to a little write up, I'm sure many members would greatly appreciate it!

Yobiwan · 12-08-2012, 06:51 PM

actually . lower place is very small. & real problem is that some strong steel
frame(?) is blocking inside . So if you want normal size 1 din receiver , you must cut that off. that one of above picture is normal size receicer so I cut some steell inside. It was very very very painful job.. car & my heart is hurting... =(. I can't recommend this style.

BTW there is Small size( 3/5 size depth) media receiver from SONY.. DSX-A30 ( it is asian name, I dont know it is available in USA ). & someone of my country
use A30 for lower place install. & He said that was piece of cake, no need to cut anything. like bolt on. ..
but it's media receiver so you can't use CD .

sorry for bad english =). I hope this helpful

@Dezoris any chance you're still going to do the DIY write up?

Dezoris · 12-08-2012, 07:27 PM

Yobiwan this is excellent work. My final install is very similar to yours. Here is my demo video:

I plan on doing a final write up. But dont have all the small details finished yet sorry.

Awesome thanks, I'm mainly curious how it boots up on ignition, is your charger tied into switched power and that boots up the screen? Similar to the screen pops on when you connect the charger.

Dezoris · 12-08-2012, 07:49 PM

The simple answer is the charger is using the cars 12v in the glove box. Only supplies power on ignition.
In developer mode on the tablet you set, keep screen on when charging. So as soon as the tablet gets power it turns on. When no power it turns off the screen.

Fantastic job!

It looks like there is no hands free functionality. Is that correct?
