^ What did you automate on it?


It's a little bulky, but it's not visible, being behind the dash :p
Indicators wise you only really have two options, the stock ones, or the clear ones...

I have the clear ones

[Technikhaus]

haha, wow...
I had similar issues with setting mine up to turn on when my phone's bluetooth connects...
I have up, and turn it on by pushing the button hidden at the top of the ash tray that you can only just reach :p
I want to set something up better, but i'm not too sure what to do...

[Vectose]

If you tell me what you want it to do I can make a Tasker profile for you.

[Technikhaus]

It's all good thanks
I need still work out what I'm actually going to do.....

Looks pretty clean
I should do this at some stage...

Looks good mate!

My head unit sits behind the tablet and I will be using a IR repeater to control it with the remote.

thanks mate its quite easy most is just plug and play.

My head unit sits behind the tablet and I will be using a IR repeater to control it with the remote.

thats a really good idea! my head unit already has a remote so ive been using that to control it, but the signal strength is poor when the glove box is closed, but sometimes its fine, hahaha the remote has a mind of its own lol

[Vectose]

The reason it doesn't work with the glove box closed is because it's infrared. Like a TV remote, it needs a direct line of sight to send and receive the signal.

[adzski]

it still works when the glove box is closed you just have to move the remote around abit lol, but ill see what i can do to man it work better

[Vectose]

It works because the IR light is going through the gaps of the glove box. The only way to make it work better is with a IR repeater.
Or cut a hole in your glove box.

[adzski]

i might just use a ir repeater, but well see after i install the tablet how much i use the head unit.

also was playing with my galaxy tab 2 noticed when it screen locks u can only use the button to make the screen active again, does it do this while on charge? or will it stay active the whole time?

[Vectose]

That is why you need to use Tasker. You can set it to turn on when it is charging and turn off when not charging.

I sort of lol'ed how u cut a massive slit in the glovebox haha.

But looks aight.

Not being a prick here.. But why?

It does not look like a deck worth hiding due to its value?

I use to do this to my old cars.. Like my RX2. Left the stock radio in place and hid all the "state of the art" stuff.. Well as "state of the art" was for the early 90's.. But old cars like that were a piece of piss to get into, and alarms were not that food either. .

Because they are putting 7 inch Android tablets in the stock head unit spot, therefore they need to relocate the head unit.

Ahh.. I must have missed that over 14 pages...
