A followup to my original post "how to install a double DIN head unit in an A8 D2 dash" from long ago: (https://www.audiworld.com/forums/a8-...1-a8l-2773028/)
I'll write more tomorrow, but here are the teaser pictures: https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...e5ca48ab6e.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...18596e6adf.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...e242493c92.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...45244958a0.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...021884b8f1.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...c536b50ba2.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...d50cf7f0be.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...202f3aec22.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...9e98f671aa.jpgBackground screen https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...b9b1b8a6aa.jpgBackground screen https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...3a70b66a57.jpgTest fitting. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...760d8dc750.jpgBestBuy $25 https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...fe4398d70d.jpgOpening up an Apple TV gen 3 to convert from 120V AC to 12V DC https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...3d7dec7e51.jpgtesting. |
Nice
Very nice, I've wanted to do this for a while. I'd love to figure out how to get the iPad to pop up a video of the backup camera automatically without me having to touch the screen, that would be great.

I'm chasing the same problem.
some interesting kickstarter solutions, but a lot of vapor. i purchased a Pearl Automotive RearView for my son's car. He uses an iPhone 6S+ for his main screen (mag mount). Their solution is awesome, but $499 was pricy. Unfortunately they blew through $50m in VC funding, but sales were too low. They closed up a month or so ago. the app used NFC to needle a push notification, but is still a hack. jialbreaking opens up lots of possibilities. Arduino with a canbus OBD-II shield and a few triggers. Might be an interesting project. i'll keep you all updated. - John |
