Zero exposed wires!

I decided to use the Fifield mini-m mount. The only issue I can possibly see having is room for the lightning cable. The iPad mini is a tight fit in the 370z bezel. I have found a company that makes right angle lightning cables if I'm unable to fit the Apple cable.

Please report back on your install! I am thinking that this mount might be the way to go but I would probably be looking to wire it to my stock Bose system. I don't like the idea of an exposed lightning cable or plugging it in by hand each time, I'd like to have it plug in when I slide the ipad into place.

And BTW, Cheers from a fellow pilot!
