Watch Top Gear from the comfort of your 996

This is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 'installed' into the dash. It fit incredibly well...I'm still shocked about how well it fit. Now I have navigation, bluetooth music & phone, internet, videos, etc. within arms length. It's basically a horrible accident waiting to happen.

I love the 7" tablet as opposed to an ipad. It'll fit in your back pocket, suit pocket, or in your 996 dash.

If you're willing to have an aftermarket interior look and willing to spend $ on wireless service, this is an awesome mod.

And some steering wheel controls would be nice. As long as we're dreaming, I'd like a smartly-dressed orangutan to announce my arrival at every social function.

Very nice! I've been looking at installing a double din unit to replace stock headunit (unfortunately I have the Bose w/ MOSFET) to get ipod, nav, bluetooth, ... This just might do the trick.
