    Look up ipad mini install with Sony stereo on you tube. There's a Jetta install where the guy shows calling via bluetooth.

    So not hinged but magnets......sneaky. Thanks for posting up the video!

    Also, I still haven't decided if I am going to try to make more of these. Like I said it's about $100 for the parts and supplies to do it plus the time it would take.

    BTW, If you're using an Adroid base pad, add a wireless OBDII code reader and OBDII app and you have an Ultra/Scan gauge on your dash.

    Just use an aftermarket radio mount kit from Scosche or Metra.


    OP:

    Awesome work! Best looking iPad install I have seen in a Tacoma. Your choice of using that deck makes it pretty easy for retaining the functionality of a regular radio with the benefits of having an iPad in the dash, too.

    I've contemplated doing something like this quite a bit, but I'm too lazy to do the work, and I would insist on obtaining a digital optical output from the iPad to my audio processor, which would likely make it difficult to have hands-free calling and radio.

    It's using the stock metal mounting brackets. It fits perfectly :)
