Someone did it on the g37 forum using some scan converter box and he even wired into the touchscreen interface. His setup definitely looked pretty nice though.

I think that's a little too much work for me and too much room for error.

The HKS Camp II looks pretty nice but I'd like more than just diagnostics.
What else are you looking for?

I guess ability to watch movies, listen to internet radio/pod casts, check email or search google without having to go through a small phone screen. I know I can get all these through separate means like my phone and connect a player for movies in the aux input but I would like to consolidate everything into one interface.

And also having a pc in there opens up the possibilities of whatever else I can think of.

Its your car, put anything you want in it. If you could fit a living roomset in it, do it!

I just got the proclip ipad mini holster and plan on fabricating a mount that will fit on top and on the sides of the cover in the center dash. ill post pics soon

Mine sits next to me in the seat. When I drive fast it tends to move to the door, in the air and under my seat. So mounting that thing is great. Can the mount handle the G's?

Velcro?

nice set up though, i was thinking about doing something like this but i want to make it look stock by installing a tablet into the cubby and still being able to close it to hide the tablet

Being able to close the cubby will be very difficult to do short of:

- Removing the cubby box completely and mounting the tablet to the back of the console
- Using a 4.5-6'' screen (or even smaller)

It's not the screen size that takes up the space, it's the bezel of the tablet that you want to drop in. That cubby is not big.

I mounted a Nexus 7. Much better size.

hhhmmmm im going to have to think about it more but i was thinking that if i modify the cubby to just show the screen, not all the way in the back but not sitting in front of the cubby, if you know what i mean

honestly i dont want the bezel showing so it looks clean and can appear to be stock(do something like the torque app on an android tablet to have a screen similar to the GTR)

Yes. I know what you're talking about. I've linked this photo before on several different threads. You have to remote the door, otherwise the hinges from the lid assembly take up a ton of room. The tablet in the picture could be more flush but I never got around to adjusting the mount further back.
