Ipad Mini Install
So i decided to create my own idea of how to install an iPad Mini into the dash of my WRX. Up to this point I have only saw two or three different people who have done this. The first being online which was a slide mount where you slide the iPad in from the top. Many of you have probably saw this video on YouTube. The next one I saw was by naked_dave1 who did an amazing job with his. I read his whole forum which gave me a lot of advice and tips when I was doing mine. The way I wanted to do mine was to start by buying a new bezel and working up from that to mount my iPad in front of my factory radio. I did this to save me money on my end but also to make it easy for steering wheel controls and USB connection to my car. I found out the most difficult part of whole thing was the finishing bondo work. I worked on the final sanding and re-sanding for countless hours and there are a few places I would love to go back and fix but for now its fine by me. I will post all of the pictures I have from start to finish if anyone has any questions of how I did any part of the building don't hesitate and to ask how it was done.
This Is my final install in the car. I will probably repaint it due to the glossy paint not matching the car Not that great of a pic but gives you the idea [IMG][/IMG]

Great in idea, but like you said finish needs some work. If you want to make it easy, wrap in in CF or something. Good work doing it yourself though.
