Ipad mini installed in dash Nissan Titan NVS AUDIO NJ










NVS AUDIO just finished up version 1.0 of the brand new Apple Ipad Mini that came out this week. (Version 1.0 because there are a few things that we need to figure out to make the install better, like audio / video out of the new lightning connector, charging with auto power on off of the ipad when the vehicle ignition turns on and off, theses are all problems we had when the ipad 1 first came out) We were one of the first shops in the world to put a Ipad 1st gen in a car (behind Soundman and fishman - check out our Mercedes cl600 amg ipad install below.) So we are very familiar with the problems that incar ipad installs are plagued with, we welcome the challenges with the new Ipad Mini.





























In this install we chose to upgrade the already installed system in our Nissan Titan with a ipad Mini. The Nissan already had a Ipad 2 installed in a custom fiberglass arm rest console. The audio was feed into the Audison Bit one processor along with the signal from the Kenwood dnx 6990hd double din touch screen navigation in the dash. The signal runs from the Bit One into 3 Hertz  HDP amps and run a set of Hertz mille 3 way components upfront and a custom center channel full active along with a set of Hertz 10 inch High Energy 10 inch sub woofers under the rear seats.


  





We wanted to install the Ipad Mini in a way that still gave us access to the kenwood double din navigation , so we came up with the Magnetic float mount idea that Soundman car audio pioneered. The magnetic mount option makes the Ipad mini removable yet clean looking. We started fabrication by making a fiberglass pan for the Ipad mini with magnets in between the first and second layer of glass.





Then we took a Metra kit for the Nissan and moulded the pan onto the face of the metra kit.





we then blended the setup together with body filler.





























We primed and wet sanded the mount, then sent it out for paint.
