The install was verrrrrry basic, no effort to hide the pad's edge, and nothing to hide it from wandering eyes.

I wonder why they placed the controls all the way down there, they could have placed usb ports there, just horrible.

All in all, awesome idea, horrible install job.

Why would you need GPS for the Ipad you can download a app for that

You can also download movies from netflix so no need for a dvd player

You have access to the internet so just go to Pandora and listen to the music of your choosing there
