There are threads on here that say android is Bluetooth and wifi is Apple. iPhones have Bluetooth and wifi as well.

I'm using iPad mini link up with obD2 via wifi to use the dashboard app .... From my understanding you don't need a phone

Ipad Mini 2 Install
 

Here's a pic of my custom Ipad Mini 2 install.

Did you by chance take any more pics of your install? This is pretty clean

The more of these installs I see, the more I want to do one on my Z!

Does anybody have any "during" photos (as opposed to just "after")?

I hope Nissan shon posts pics

Seriously, looks like several of us here would love a DYI on this...

No kidding. Is it a secret or something? A DIY with where the mounts were purchased and how it was wired to the factory radio would be awesome.

Please?

So I completed my install for the most part ...
let me know what you guys think, I used my creativity on this one.
I basically made a new cubby.

Materials used:
-black foam board.
-that velcro/cotton type of paper for new cubby inside
-glue gun
-8 magnets
-cheap ipad mini case...purchased at Five below
-box cutter
-vinyl wrap purchased at a fabric store
-nismo badge - purchased on ebay

most of the other materials were purchased at Michaels and AC Moore unless listed otherwise.

Overall wireless set up:
OBDII <----Wifi---> Ipad mini (FYI: it communicates to ipad mini via Wifi, does not need any other internet source). This portion is for use of the Dashboard app.

Ipad mini <---Blutooth---> Kenwood DNX7140
(This is for music only) . On a jailbroken iphone 5, I will tether it so that the ipad mini uses the internet connection from my verizon iphone 5 via wifi. Which means that I will go into the dashboard app, disconnect it since it is occupying the wifi with the OBDII, and then search for my iphone 5 connection.

Thank you!!!!! Repping

who are you thanking? :worship:

Finally instructions. Secret revealed! Lol


-Raj

Oh..... I gave written instructions. Mainly because I've been seeing posts of these tablet installs, but no one quite explaining the network setup for some of us dumbasses :)

So I decided to gamble a little bit and purchase some materials and find out for myself. You do not need internet connection for the OBDII.
The pictures I posted are of an Ipad Mini which means wifi only connection.

no secrets here buddy. I just read a bunch of these posts, grew some balls, and applied my creativity.
