Black Magic TSI - iPad Mini Mount
AndyBrown:
Nope, can't find it, but there's stuff out there that replaces the need for a HU at all.
Ellisimo:
So after my car deciding it didn't want to turn on and me neglecting it for a while I thought I'd give my ipad install another go.
I drilled a whole to the left where the lightning connector will connect once the ipad is in place.
I then got a smart cover and cut the magnets out to use to snap the ipad to when its in place.
Ellisimo:
A bit more of an update for you all.
But first I'll start off with the bad news, I was driving down the m27 when all of a sudden I had this fly towards me and then it managed to get stuck under my car!
So i had to pull onto the hard shoulder & jack my car up to pull it out! (It's a piece of metal if you cant tell :happy2: )
This is the damage.. pretty annoyed to say the least, but even more of an excuse to get a votex splitter! :party:
Anyway!
To the good news, I've finally finished my iPad install.
I decided to wrap the whole thing in suede instead of spraying it as no matter what I did small cracks would keep appearing, I put this down to the mount being so heavy. But this does protect the iPad when its in there from getting scratched so it's not all bad.
There are a few creases where i lost my patience but I'm still really happy with the outcome and its only cost me around £25 in total & its a great sense of achievement to do something like this yourself rather than paying over £200 for a company to do it!

Looking good mate! iPad install looks brilliant! Are you going to Beaulieu on the 28th? Simply VW
