Yes, all factory functionality remains

Thanks. I'm glad folks appreciate it.

Ha Thanks. I actually have a cottage up in Minden Ontario. Don't get to see it much living in Calgary now.

Hey, did you ever find out where to get everything? I would also like to do this to my gen and I'm also from Ontario

ipad should work much the same I would expect, so long as you can get a scripting app like tasker. As for parts. I sourced the bezel and relocation kits from places like importshark. Electrical stuff including OBD2 adapter was through Amazon. I'd suggest doing some research on the various forums for detailed instructions.

Yes, all little trimming of the dash is required at the bottom where the bezel meets the dash. It would go on without trimming but just wont sit as flush

Which android unit will fit, cause I'd like to run the reverse camera too

@@Stipmprezza www.seicane.com/inch-android-touchscreen-radio-for-2000-2011-hyundai-kia-nissan-gps-navigation-system-bluetooth-music-backup-camera-s30701 It is shallow in the back and you still will need to do some trimming to the dash frame, which is plastic. But after you do that it fits right in. I tapped into the stock head unit power and illumination wires so it comes right on and dims with the lights. You can then get a rca out to 3.5 and run it to the stock aux in for audio. I don't use the radio function so didn't bother with the antenna. For the backup camera it has the guide lines built in so make sure your camera doesn't have them or they can be disabled in the camera. You will need to also connect the reverse sensing wire to you backup lights for auto switching.

@@Stipmprezza if you are replacing the stock head unit get the metra bracket and any of the universal Android units, I also have the Android 8 universal one in another car, it is super fast and has a ton of features, unfortunately for the bk1 Gen coupe upper install they offer just the one I linked to since it needs to be shallow

@@charleswp71 yeah I have a bk1 and thanks you actually helped alot because I like the whole tablet idea but the android units like you said have a bunch more features

@@charleswp71 so you ran the aux under center console up to the usb/aux plugin?

@@seanjohn9860 i was using the 7 inch Samsung galaxy tablet.

mike Fleming You need an obd2 scanner plug with Bluetooth. You connect to it via Bluetooth with the torque app.

Haven't tried it with the factory nav myself.

+Fernando Henriquez These bezel's are typically built for a 7" tablet, not 8". I went with a Acer tablet for this install but would look at the Google Nexus or perhaps a Samsung unit if I was doing another.

+Ryan Amey thank you man ! I will check them out !

No. Steering wheel controls still operate the cars standard radio as normal.

DFSrlz Yes I have setup a script to load torque automatically, however I prefer the home screen myself.

I don't think you can with a wired camera.

Discontinued, only type a now

use an app like Tasker to setup the scripts to power on and off

Shouldn't be an issue. As long as the power source going to the tablet turns off with the car, there should be no difference.

Yes, this model has GPS. Installing stuff is done there the Google Play App (store)

Dbeau google play? so u can put movies and pics and songs on the tablet with google play? doesnt that take a long time to upload lets say a movie or software etc?

akuma4u I upload all files with an app called AirDroid that allows me to send the files from my desktop PC in the house as the tablet in the car connects to my wifi at home when the car is in the driveway.

@@northsidedrives Hey man how much was it for all the instalation?

I'm interested too

me as well

I don't think you will have the depth behind the bezel for as DD deck.

Did you setup a script to tell the tablet to go to standby when power to the charge cable cuts out ? Where is the noise coming from ? The stereo speakers or tablet itself ?

I had a shop do it but they never did it before. how do you do a script? and it's in the speakers ..... its only when I plug the tablet cord into the cigarette lighter jack... in the mp3 socket it's fine.

S.B. Fitness you needed to purchase a aux ground loop isolator.

Ok thanks also how do you get the tablet to cut off automatically after five seconds of turning the car off? My tablet stays on after I turn the car off.

S.B. Fitness you could either use tasker pro or automate pro. www.gencoupe.com/interior-2008-2012/135554-yet-another-nexus-7-tablet-install-lots-documentation-pics.html#/topics/135554?page=1

This is a problem that will always be an issue because regardless of OS version as I have yet to find a way to wake the device from a complete power off status. Best solution I have found is 1. Have tasker put the device in suspend mode and go into airplane mode when the car is off. This will shut down the GPs, wifi, etc. and allow the battery to last longer till the next time the car is started. 2. If your brave enough, open the tablet and wire an on/off button externally mounted somewhere to allow you to turn the device back on without having to remove it from the dash.

Tablet is an Acer ICONIA A100. The housing and relocation kit I got from importshark

Thanks man (Y)

+Bryan McRae Well unless you in the Toronto area, installation help might be a bit hard lol. For the kit, try here importshark.com

Yes, should fit fine in that year.

I think so. Not sure if there was any major changes to the interior in 2013.

+David Scott On the stock nav unit ? I'm not sure you can.

ok thanks brother

mike Fleming look up importshark

Tablet is essentially on at all times. The scripts in automate it power down all un-needed services and the screen when power is cut (car off) and does the reverse when the car is turned on.

Okk and to relocated the oem in the bottom du you need to modifed your factory harness ??

It will reach without modification

+Jose Guerrero Should make no difference.

+Ryan Amey it has a slot to put in the key if by any chance the battery dies

Eddie Quelhas yes, should work just fine.

+Patricia Sibrain torque

rocksolid551 use the lighter socket from where the factory radio now is. Then its some software to tell the tablet to "wake" when power is recieved (car turned on)

Ryan Amey which software? Or what app???

@@rocksolid551 try Tasker

Calgary, Alberta

Ryan Amey im from calgary too where did you get all the stuff?

Yes, I'm in the GTA

same here

OBD Bluetooth adapter from Amazon. Bezel and relocation brackets from Importshark All other power adapters, audio cables and misc. components from a local electronics place like RadioShack.
