awesome install man i work at 191, what store are you at? does the store let you do the fibreglass in the bay? id love to learn it but we cant to any in the bay so it would only be good to learn for myself
You have done a very nice job there. As for Best Buy not having a good reputation..well lets just say that reputation isnt un-warranted. They may be some good installers at some locations but I must say that my experience with the guys I have come in contact suck. Mostly a bunch of guys that act like they know everything and try to sell you overpriced mainstream stuff. When you mention anything that they dont sell they explain to you how these rockford P1's will blow those 9915's out the water.
Nice...I am looking to get the my Clarion NX501 installed by best buy but like you said, they do not have the best reputation...So I guess my question is should I take it to like an audio shop or can best buy do just as good? Thanks
Would Best Buy do anything like this for paying customers? Or would I have to go to a audio/stereo place for them to do something like this? because I've look and haven't found anything.
skillet hell yeah great song MONSTER lol that is fucking sick man it beats the shit out of a normal stereo screen how much did it cost for everything besides the ipad i know the cost to those lol
Do do something like did would cost at least $1500. Just because using the swivel bracket really complicates the fabrication. If you don't need it to swivel it would cost around 800

How do you have the iPad playing through the speakers without the headphone jack? I know you said you used a 3.5mm jack to an RCA out, but I don't see any in this video?
The "apple" docking station is fiberglassed into the holder that the iPad slides into. The docking station gives you a 30-pin dock connector input to used a charger. I hard wired the charger so it is hidden. The docking station also gives you a 3.5mm headphone jack output for audio. I used a high quality 3.5mm to RCA converter cable and ran it into my rear AUX input on my pioneer radio. None of my audio is bluetooth because the sound quality is not nearly as good as USB or AUX

@Armofgold85 this is heavy. ipod and ipad in the same wheel. and you still have all the steering wheel functions..... im reppn philly and i tip my hat to you. good work
im an istaller myself and i like the build and the swivel, but i dont like how you took away the ac vent, i just did a build on mine is not on a swivel but will def send you a vid
@mkfriedrich90 Unfortunately i had no choice but to remove the a/c vent. With the swivel bracket and the housing i had to make to support the bracket, i had to remove the vent. But to be honest, i don't miss it at all. Its over 100 degrees here in California and with my a/c on, the left vent blows twice as hard, because the right vent is plugged. Ya man, i'd love to see the video of your build!
Do you know any Best Buy installer in the Los Angeles area that could do something like this? I want my iPad installed in my Jeep but my friend just got her stereo installed at a Best Buy and it was really bad. I won't go to that one but if you know any BB in the LA area that is known for doing good work please share. Thanks and awesome work!!!
Nah man, i dont know any installers from that area. Sorry your buddy didn't have a good Best Buy experience, but if you ever head over to the Visalia/Fresno area, ill definitely handle it for you
THE QUESTION IS.... WHY NOT??? ITS A F*N iPAD FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. ITS AN IPOD, GPS, VIDEO PLAYER, INTERNET, PANDORA, AND BASICALLY A COMPUTER ALL IN MY DASH. U WANNA KNOW WHY? CUZ I CAN! :)
great work man, I did my first setup like yours with a swivel mount, I was good at first, but I made mine out wood at first and it was alil bulky but was cool to just slide it in, and now switched to an otterbox defender case, and use the screen shield as the clip to hold it in the dash. You mentioned a Jeep.............I wonder if it was mine? haha because I had put videos of my older setup before. Soundman got me hooked also on having to put an Ipad in the dash.
Lots of fiberglass and bondo work to get the correct shape. had to extend around 24 wires. 7 of them were heavier guage. around 12-14 guage. the rest of them were 20-22 guage. had to extend around 12ft. i created a face on the housing for the a/c controls so it was held on with pressure from the back of the housing, with a bracket. it clipped into the factory location and held up with the 1 factory screw
That's awesome work man I want to do kinda the same thing wit my 2000 silverado but wit my 7" tablet but wanted to slide it from the top of the dash u think can help me out.
Props to you sir
