UPDATED WITH FINISHED DASH PICS AT BOTTOM!!

I wasnt sure where to put this but i thought others might be interested!

I ripped out my car stereo and replaced it with my N810 as the new solution. Below is a quick walk through on how I did it and a short movie of how it works!

Here's thie vid:

And now the work in progress pics:

Here I used a router (for wood, not for wifi) to make a cut out in the shape off my n810:



Here I fit it into my dash:



I made the swivel piece by stripping cables and using bondo. The risky part was wrapping my N810 in a ziplock bag, plugging in all the cables (stereo plug, power, and usb), and pouring bondo all over it to make the mold!



Put it together and spray paint it black:



I used a wood dowl to allow the piece to rotate.

And Done!



Heres some of the equipment in the trunk:





Finsihed Dash!









What do you all think?

I'm loving it personally.

I'll get some pics with the dash put back together shortly and some at night so you can see the screen.
