Default Samsung Galaxy Tablet install with Bose system and Navigation unit

Just mounted up a Galaxy tablet... I have the bose system and holy hell was it easy!

Needed:
Tablet: Why a Galaxy? - Expandable memory, only $170...

AUX to RCA cable: Amazon.com: Sirius Satellite 6 feet Auxilliary Input Cable Stereo Mini-Jack to 2 Male RCA: Car Electronics
^I recommend getting a 90 degree aux cord that has the smallest head possible. I stripped a straight head and made it 90 deg. but if you are wanting plug and play, get something like what I linked above.

12v - usb adapter: Fosmon 2100mAh Dual Port USB Car Charger for Apple iPad 2 / the New iPad - White - Newegg.com
^The Car charger should be dual port so that you can still use it to charge a phone. It needs to have a 5v output at 2a for proper charging of the tablet.

Bluetooth super mini (to run torque): Can be found on ebay and such...
Heavy duty double sided tape
No cutting of the super expensive NAV shroud...
Keeps the (now useless) NAV control interfacel but adds lighting


This shows the super easy route if you have the bose system and can live with it.

Turns on and STAYS on only while charging. Turns off after set time to turn off display (I did after 2 minutes of inactivity)... Damn thing was stupidly easy to install and all I have to do it switch to "AUX" setting on the radio lol










Downsides with my install with bose system:
Nothing sound wise
Can't see what the fan setting is for AC and heat
Can't see what temp settings are at
Can't see radio stations if using regular radio
Can't see XM/ Sirius stations if using radio
Can't see any normal function if NOT using the tablet...

Do I find it annoying? -No, I use the tablet to do everything.

Looks clean like the stock NAV unit and gets cooler and cooler everyday!


Questions? Please ask! I am constantly making changes to this.

Thanks,
Andrew
