- I've always wanted to use a tablet as a car stereo display. And this is the easiest and flush way I found that works best & cheap!
Step 1: Use or buy a 8" Tablet or iPad (depending on dash size)
Step 2: Connect Tablet through Bluetooth or wired connection.
Step 3: Buy Velcro from Walmart or here amzn.to/2IrKAE0
Step 4: Cut your strips to size for your dash & tablet
Step 5: Line up and stick 1 side of the Velcro's strip on dash
Step 6: Use the other side of Velcro for the tablet to stick & grip, but lining up to the other receiving Velcro to stick on top of each other.
Step 7: Press them together and watch it stay in place, easy as that!

I was worried about replacing my high-end older oasis with this one th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCgPI5O2AtmcHq9SJhgsCGbpAzJAJfrJp but it is surprisingly light and the screen resolution is just as good. I never had the warm light on my old kindle, but i do not use it on the ipad so I will probably not need it. I think the only thing I'll miss is the self-adjusting light, but this is so worth it!
*I upgraded from the 8 inch to the **Newest.Technology** 10 inch. I really didn't expect it to make that much difference but it has. It is also much faster and responsive. Great Purchase.*
If this is an install, that means tree air fresheners have to be installed as well
Hey big suggestion for anyone looking to do this. Use painters tape first! Any color and then put the velcro on it. This way if you ever decide to remove the velcro you can without having the glue bake in the car into the dash. Something when attaching items to the wall
Thanks 🙏
@@unknowntosociety01 💪💪
I was thinking that too especially when temps get 80+ degrees in the summer and the velcro glue gets really slimey and bakes on whatever it's sticking to. Great idea with the painters tape.
@@carlosmelendez8317I wonder if the painters tape gets gooey in the heat also. Probably not.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017yeah in extreme heat it may get gooey. A tablet mount holder that you put in the cd player might work better as well and not have to worry about the tape
Seems like a good idea until you leave the iPad in there while running to the store and come back with a missing iPad and a broken window
Could happen, but worth my luck, I'll be fine.. 😥
😂
@killit withfire hahaha.....
Don't listen to these fucking morons commenting - You're 100% correct. The thieves who might look in the vehicle are just going to think it's a useless factory head unit, like so many mfr's are running now. I've been doing it with a 10.1" GalaxyTab on Uber/Lyft for over 3 years and 5000 rides - These dummies who are dogging you haven't done SHIT like you're doing. Stay brazen, stay strong, ignore the sheople - You have to stay outside their herds to get anywhere in this world. Just look at fashion trends for the last 1000 years - That should tell you something. Sheople/lemmings/groupthink/crowd mentality - Whatever you want to call it, they buck change. They don't like your creativity. But you're right, and it's an awesome way to roll with vids/mp3s at your fingertips!
Cesar exactly happen
I switched to an Android unit 4 years ago, up to this day I still love my radio and by far well worth the investment.
Hi I had a similar setup a few years ago. They make a magnetic cell phone or tablet holder that goes into the cd slot. Would be good for your phone too since doesn’t block vents. Other option I do in conjunction is to actually use L brackets and cover it colored duct tape or fabric and slip it into the ends of the dash.
Totally unrelated but that’s my gym in the video 😆
That will be snatched out in a matter of seconds in my neighborhood 😂😂😂😂😂😂
You need to move
is it joke?
Dude, this is genius, thank you! I was trying to stick mine on to the screen with double sided suction cups but it didn't really work. I've got some velcro in my tool box which I didn't even think of using but it's perfect! Thanks!!
@Iain Cooper I actually laughed out loud reading your comment :)
Me too tried the same... Bwhahaha never thought of this... Lols
For $300 you can install a good android car stereo
Tharindu Leonard can’t watch video or use apps on android stereo
yes you can... it literally runs android. wtf. @@MySpaceSucks3
@@captaincanada1525 there cheap and sound quality is horrible. Either way a good headunit is the best. Not a Chinese Android unit there's no point in having a bunch of apps in your car either way.
I thought that was a good idea until 2 years later as android keeps updating, the stereo and some apps become obsolete. Ended up with android auto / carplay stereo.
@@tipdog36 yeah exactly and those Chinese units sound like total crap and have all types of issues. A good headunit is the way to go. Either way idk why anyone would want a screen so cluttered up in there car.
just get a nice head unit, avoid all the frustration and link it to your smartphone and wallah...your smartphone will always outdo an ipad install plus you keep it with you...ipad installs are so useless nowdays
Good idea.... BUT the problem with velcro is the heat in the car when the windows are up on a hot day.. The velcro will "POUR" off... Just closing your door the tablet is going face down like a $2 hooker.... Best bet would be a dash or windshield mount that you can position
hahah
How about how you power the unit man Come on.
2011 Ford Escape. Don’t have a screen in the dashboard. Bought the Apps 2 cars phone CD mount. Holds my iPad 9.7. Covers the radio controls but it’s fine because I have volume on the steering wheel.
No clean way to have a power cable in? Using a lot op GPS+music and video all day will eat the battery quite fast.
10 minutes to say USE VELCRO. Really? Maybe that's why you're not making much money on youtube.
Damn I did the same exact thing last night and works like a champ. I used the same material as well. I guess I wasn’t the only one thinking outside the box
I'm going to use this method too in my Hyundai Accent.
So sick of my dumb display
TH-cam works good over Bluetooth? In my car the sound is not synced right
Henry Padilla do you have a Chrysler with the Uconnect? Mine does the exact same thing in that car, but every other brand Bluetooth is fine
You were fortunate that the iPad was able to rest on that shoulder. I have an old iPad Air. There's no shoulder on my Honda Vezel. I wonder the Velcro will be able to hold rigidly.
Why pay 300 for a ipad that doesnt do everything you want it to when you could have just got an android tablet much cheaper with everything you need aka GPS 🤔 I've got a Samsung tablet in mine and its perfect using sygic for navigation and a music player on the screen both at the same time, like the vecro idea, mine is just on a tablet holder at the minute but it's not very flush at all and looks quite bulky
LoL Mercedes-Benz watched your video and did the same thing to their screen: Glue the tablet to the dashboard!
FOR $50 YOU GET "AMAZON FIRE 8 TABLET!
Magnetic strip would make a nicer install... i still use ezpass belcrow... but trying to find the magnetic strips... sick job thought.. thumbs up..
that's a great solution . Simple, cheap, easy to fit and remove and does everything you need ....Whats not to like !..
That Velcro will stick for 25+ years we did this on our boat for the remote control cuz that was fancy in the 90s. 25 years of neglect and outside and it’s still on and if you really need the back up camera just take it off for the minute or2
Sure its nice to learn how to use velcro….but what this video really needs to include is:
•how to set up iphone and ipad to mirror each other,
• how to display apple carplay on ipad
•how to play music on ipad through the car’s speakers.
I've seen your other videos as well as this one, continue the great work, Thank you for the content
You could do the same thing to a case and then have the option to remove the tablet from the case instead of peeling the Velcro over and over... Good video
I saw an Indian guy tied a thick thread between the ac grill and the 7inch tablet like hanging a piece of cloth.
Remove & carry it while going home/parking.
Just need a reverse wifi camera.
I know this way is so cheap but honestly you can buy a iPad CD holder , it will cover your whole stereo and is way more easy to remove it , that's the way I have it
Hey...here's my question.
Now that you have been doing this, does the iPad rattle against the plastic underneath?
I did the same thing on my 2011 Hyundai sonata been using it now for 6 years😂 I just make my phone a hotspot.
Why don't you upgrade your idea and put some velcro over the gloves compartment and stick your girlfriend's portrait, she will loved it!
Squary
How can you get it to play through the speaker if your car doesn’t have bluetooth
Awesome if you still have access to your bluetooth system to get the sound to carry over into your car speaker system. Otherwise it sux.
inside a car it would get quite hot in a summer and the battery would cook to perfection
Once you had the loop part of the Velcro on the car, why didn't you just put the hook side right on that then remove the tape, lone up the iPad and press it into place? That would have aligned everything perfectly.
I'm pretty sure anyone will think that's just the cars screen seeing how every car now has a big screen
Can I connect the tablet to the radio and control the radio from the tablet
Yeah it works great...although my tablet also has a DVD player lol proscan Elite
Is this for real or it's a joke? This way you can "install" macbook pro, just put it on top 🤣
when you put phone on ac vents, in winters when you use heater, doesnt your phone gets hot?
How loud are those ipads? Main reason I asked is because my car stereo stopped working
What a waste of Velcro, why not just get your girlfriend to hold it up while you drive
How much and how well would you say the kia optima works for you? I’m planning on getting one myself but i need experienced kia owners to tell me what to expect and if it’s worth its price
Can you listen to TH-cam videos and is the volume good do it still have the car base or no....
I was gonna get an in car head unit but a cheap tablet and this mount is a better option so i can keep the car stereo stock if i sell in the future and will still have a tablet in the end
You lost me at "ghetto ".
Tie Collins for real wtf was that
Useless for all cars that have air vents in middle of dashboard
10 minutes of how velcro works. It's no wonder TH-cam income isn't working for you
yep, you are right!
I love the simple solution. I have CarPlay in my car, but you pointed out I could have bigger maps screen. I would use Siri to ask it to do stuff. Like call people, text someone, etc. I missed how you have iPad audio coming through your car speakers.. I’ll watch again. Way to go, Sir. Great workaround. Remember to take iPad out when you leave car.
He has his iPad connected to his cars Bluetooth like connecting your android or iPhone same thing plus he’s using his hot spot from cell phone to get his iPad running
I like the idea. I wish an ipad can connect wirelessly with a back up camera tho.
" it's ok Officer, the video is for the passenger 😀"
Fuck you mean Ghetto? Excuse me, wtf do you mean ghetto? 1:25
Can you give me a link for the phone mount
Can you do a water bottle cap install next !?
They sell tablet holders that mount from the CD player. They work very well, and looks like it would be perfect with your vehicle setup. It wouldn't block the A/C vents unlike other makes.
Link? That's exactly what I need!
Hi! I did this exact thing you just said ~ its a SUPER strong magnet holder that fits perfectly into the cd player slot ~ only thing is, its SO strong that when I went to remove the carplay unit, it tore the magnetic strip right off the back of the carplay lol! Maybe the sticky side of that magnet wasnt strong enough? It was 3m, so I thought it would stick pretty good to the back of the carplay but nope
T Mobile will give you a Tab 3 with phone for unlimited service. The tablet and phone come with a sim card and data' I turned my Minivan into a Tesla minus the power!!
That would be a nice setup
Why are young people and their idiot ideas so embarrassing these days?
Great idea 👍🏾! I have a 2018 ipad I am going to try this
YeH man. It's a Kia. What'd you expect?
Great job I'm going to do this in my car, I worked for Uber and Lyft for years ( top driver), I don't recommend nobody to do it, Ii destroy two cars with all the miles that I put on, I'm so happy now that I have a different job, if I could go back in time I would never worked for this shitty companies, they're abuse drivers, they don't even pay car maintenance, gas, insurance, overtime or benefits, etc....Miami is the lowest rate pay to drive. I heard In NY and Cali is different.
How to charge tablet. Can you connect with 12 V car battery
he talks too much and did stupidest thing i couldnt ever thought of
the Velcro solution is only going to be temporary, after 3rd time you separate the velcro pads they lose the stronger hold and the tablet will rattle.
True True True
But you can't leave it in the car. It will not work if it gets hot.
What is this? Some sort of stupid? What a shame for k5 owner
U could get a tablet case
This actually smart!!
Shouldv bought a Samsung then. Galaxy tab
That’s not how you install velcro...
People in the UK you can get Velcro pads called "Power Commanders" check them out,really good my Google mini is hanging off the wall with one now. Homebargains B&M and the like sell them.😉
How do you play through the car speaker ??
Only way I'd use a tablet is if you opened it, pulled the battery and hardwired it. Those batteries don't take cold/heat well at all. Good way to burn down your car when the lithiumIon batteries explodes from the 120+ cars get in the sun.
But how do you get te sound into your speakers??
Help with Ranault Megane 3 screen
This was filmed in Hillsboro OR? I'm from that area, live in AZ now but the beginning pics of your car looks very familiar
Yep, I'm from Hillsboro Oregon, and I also almost decided to move to Arizona, but I was able to buy a house here in Hillsboro after all. How's the AZ life?
@@iBertz Arizona is nice. Area I'm in is cheaper than Forest Grove/Cornelius where I moved from. Still getting used to the heat, clear skies all day every day.
@@Dreams_Rx I went in May, other than the resent visit, I've been 3 other times and once in July when it was 120 degrees. I almost moved out there and I wanted to do San Tan Valley, 2nd Queen Creek and 3rd Florence. Not sure if you're familiar with those locations
No!!!spend 600$ is the way to go
But my steering wheel is on the right hand side.
I suppose you don’t charge ur ipad
Nice try, I almost buy it. It's so ghetto. lol
Does your car not support Android Auto or CarPlay? Then you could use the built in screen and have gps that isn't shit.
next step .........hot water ahhhhhhh
Your original radio was already nice
How did you put wifi or data or internet
Could of used suction cups to the screen
The heat in the car will affect the iPad
Omg same car 😁
Hopefully police don't start cracking down on stuff like this. I have a feeling they eventually will though. Someone will get in a fatal crash and they'll discover they had a mounted tablet that doesn't have safety features.
Are you fucking kidding me?
What size tablet is that u installed
Cd slot tablet holder is better 😅
Wow this is just as bad as that silly thrend of hanging steel balls under your car, cartoon characters etc.. Now a 42" screen.
Absolute waste of my life
This is good if your dash is flat
smart, cheap and simple. nicely done
how did it hold up after over 2 years and in the heat??
I guess I do not have that much heat here in Oregon to melt, or it does fine just the way it is setup.
Cool… what of charging it.
