Here you go guys, had her for about a month now.. 03 TT 6spd 44k miles..

Stuff I've done:

-Ipad mini install
-Dension Gateway 500
-Climate control, radio relocate
-35% tint
-Smoked corners
-New front lip (old one was scuffed up!)
-New voltage regulator on alternator
-Durametric on order!

Car came with K40 radar detector, Gemballa wheels, Exhaust, and GIAC tune with OBD loader.

(Best craigslist find of all time, doctor owned beauty!)

Thanks to these forums for all the DIYs and knowledge.

 

That Ipad mini install looks amazing... I was going to do double din, but now that I see that... It may be too good to pass up. What did the install cost you?

 

Did it myself.. flawless Ipad mini 16gb ATT from craigslist used for 325, (new is 500ish with tax) Dension was 250ish for AUX input.. rest was my time (about 8 hours total)

 

Car looks great, congratulations on the purchase.

 

Great job. Those wheels are classic too!

 

Ditto, looks great!

 

The iPad looks amazing. What all can the iPad do?

 

I love how the iPad mini looks but who has time to use it when your driving a porsche turbo?

 

iPad looks cool but I'm trying to wrap my head around how you would actually use it in our cars. All I can come up with is that the iPad is a music source for your factory radio. Any other functions?

You could install a wireless router in the car to create your own network. From there you could install some home automation modules from RTI like their relay contact closure module. You could turn on/off things in your car via the RTI control app on the iPad. Essentially, you could eliminate every basic switch in the car: windows, trunk, hood, traction control, wing etc. For the full effect you would need to rebuild interior panels to delete the switches. the end result would be a super clean interior, only a steering wheel and an ipad...no other switches or buttons. It's a huge project but it can be done. We did this in my brothers motor coach.

 

any chance you could do a diy writeup on the mini install?

 

It is a 4G connected iPad.. Real time traffic, Pandora internet radio, Google maps, Siri, Quick google searches when stopped , you name it....it is fully connected to the internet. It also functions as a wireless hotspot for a laptop.

AT&T has shared data plans where 5 of us share 15gb per month...and its only $10/month extra to add an iPad which will share data out of the 15gb per month... 5 of us barely use 7-8gb per month, so this is an excellent option for me.

Thanks for all the comments people , also search and you will find an ipad mini install diy!

 

Your car looks amazing !! I really like everything about this car, now all you just need to lower it

 

I love the ipad in there. I use mine on trips in the Lexus to watch Netflix. Makes driving to by really quick. (Don't bash, I can watch the road also)

 

Great find!
Congrats

 

iPad mini looks awesome and very functional. you should purchase a bluetooth obd2 dongle that way you can read CELs, and see actual values such as boost and air fuel. some programs even have gauge like front end interfaces. link to the diy? curious how it is secured in there.
