Still a work in progress, but highly functional. Needs more bondo, more sanding, etc etc. But it works, which is what I'm most happy about.


Showing that Dash Command can work with it, even if it's a little buggy


Watching an episode of Mighty Car Mods while on a long drive. (I know it's not that safe)


I fabbed it myself using pretty much just bondo, maybe a little epoxy too. One of these days I'll make a longer and more in depth thread about what I did and how I did it.

What's the knob on the left side?? Is that for the volume??
And is it covering the stereo or did you take out the unit?

Dash Command? I'm not familiar with it. How does it compare to torque? I'm definitely loving the interface.

i haven't used either in depth, but i have used both. they are capable of essentially the same functions. i think dash command has a nicer default interface, but both do offer interface customizations. i believe dash command is only ios and torque is only android, so everyone wins more or less! i previously used torque when i had a nexus 7 in my dash before the ipad.
