Nice work, keen to see more info.

As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;
 
"My eye is watering, this might be a bit hot"

I should just convert to single, right?

That's innovative.

Like you said, wrong way for movies.

Only improvement I can see would be too cut a hole then mould a fibreglass groove in the bottom fascia so that the circle button is completely exposed...can be done with fibreglass repair kit.

And is that faux carbon fibre vinyl wrap on the centre console??

For shame.

I wont be playing movies anyways and this is a work in progress not finised yet and yeah i already put dent in for home button

mainly for music and I want to run gauge apps

carbon fiber wrap gone FAIL lol

here a vid of it so far, dont pay out on surround (its not finished)
will put up some pics of how i mounted it tomorrow when i put amp in
still have to overcome volume control because when you plug av leads in there is no vol. (trip to Jaycar) might have to mount a dial

climate control mounted in glove box was easy the cables to it reach except the out air temp hose i will have to get some more pipe
and some perspex to make a cover for it

Wow interesting idea, only ever seen them on oversized ipod docks, not in the dash. Even cooler would be if you could interface with the climate control on the iPad with an app, but maybe that is asking too much :P

I have a PLX bluetooth unit that I want to get rid of if you haven't bought one yet.

I really like the setup, I was thinking about doing the same thing with a cheapy android tablet, since you can get them for like $150 now. You might want to look into an anti-glare screen protector - with the ipads glossy screen I can picture it being a nightmare when the sun hits it.

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.


It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.

have you tried torque or dashcommand and also what year is your b4 as it will only work with late 01 onwards(denso)
has to be obd2 compilant

Hmm mine doesn't play with my ECU either. I just assumed it was some issue reading a JDM ECU. Yes it's a denso, and my tactrix cable reads it fine, so maybe PLX devices don't work with Subaru?
