- My friend challenged me to see if I could build a iPad Dash Kit for his 12.9" iPad Pro to mount it in his Silverado. This is the first version of that kit!
In this video I am using an Ender 3 with an Ender Extender 400XL Kit. I've had the kit for over a year and love it! If you are looking to purchase one, I have affiliate links below, thank you.

I think this build up is great! Next time spend $35 on a stepper bit when drilling the console outlet. I would consider redoing the temp wiring to the plug behind the dash and tilting the iPad so that the camera has the best angle on you the driver when you are trying to video chat with someone while you are stuck in the road. I had wanted to do the same modifications to my infinity fx35 dash for some time. It was difficult fumbling through the radio and making sure my cellphone was charged. I would consider doing a wireless console charger inlay next to rest my cellphone while driving down the road also adding a few in ports and an AC outlet in the console with a power inverter mounted under the hood to charge a laptop. Great work!
How much for this
Love this! Been trying to learn about these applications for 3D printing and this video gives me inspiration for so many projects!
I suck at 3d printing , but my ideas is strong😂
Very cool videos Lucas. Enjoyable to watch.
Thank you!
Absolutely amazing!
Man that’s pretty mint. Lots of prototypes but that’s the name of the game. In they end it’s custom and you built it 👍
Thanks! I'm glad you like it! 😀
i loved sticking the foam to the monitor and tracing it. Another method is to take a picture (making sure your perpendicular to the outline) and upload it into google sketchup and trace it their. Even better than that is using a scanner on a printer.
Haha thanks, I've heard of using a scanner in the past but it didn't even cross my mind till I read your comment😅
google raster image cad. i use it all the time, just make a spline and you have yourself a class a surface
Great Video!!! I wish i could learn all that
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Yo. That's sickkkkk. Definetly gunna get you to install one in my car!
Thanks!! Got the version 2 coming soon!
envyous of the space and ease of removing interior parts like that... use to german cars, like everything is bolted down and like 5 of the bolts are behind something else that you also need to remove.. and when removed, every little cranny is packed with electronic gizmos or sound deadening
No more hidden compartment? I'll have to see part 2 just in case.
Better subscribe for part 3 just in case
You are awesome!
I thought about doing something similar and came to YT to fiund out you already did it. haha
I planned around a year ago on moving the climate control down but maybe using a mini iPad I could get more where I wanna be.
But hey, yours looks just perfect!
I really liked everything you did.
Thank you! I'm glad you like it!
I just uploaded a video of Version 2 of the Kit, it's a lot simpler and I actually took the time to sand and paint it 😅
Man bro u should make and sell some i would be interested and im sure there are more that would be too
The Dash Kit STL Files are now available, linked in the description! Thanks for watching!
@@LucasBuildsStuff thank you I just need to find somewhere that has a 3d printer now 😞
Hey brother which iPad would u recommend is the best easiest size to use for everyday use or do they all seem to work the same what I mean is does the smaller iPad kit work easier to load unload iPad than the bigger iPad kit u sale so I will know which one to order from you thanks for your time.@@LucasBuildsStuff
Dude that was an aewsome build , It looks like a lot of time , but worth it. I used to have a truck like that an always wanted to do somethimg like what you did here. (ps love the preacher saying "WHY, WHY" LMAO , thats how i feel when doing things like that . Thanks
Thanks! Glad I'm not the only one 😂
GUY!!! THIS IS SO COOL
Thanks! I'm almost done version 2, hopefully have the video up in the next week!
Bro really likes the "WHY" thing
Hey buddy, I hope this is still working well. I don't know if you printed it in PLA, but I would suggest using something like ASA or Nylon, as those will not soften with heat / age. There are some pretty good videos on YT that show different materials being left on a dash in the heat (and I don't mean blazing heat, just standard heat). It would be a good reference.
I've done all my automotive stuff in ASA - it prints beautifully and is UV and heat resistant without an enormous price tag.
Even if heat is not an issue (it appears you live in a cold climate) ASA is still a great choice to reduce cold brittleness of the material and improve impact resistance.
Hey! So I used PETG because of the temperature resistance being close to ABS, UV protected, easy to print and the stiffness of the final product. But I was just looking into ASA and Nylon the other day because the biggest downfall I've found with PETG is the post processing. (I'm working on version 2 which is requiring a lot of supports)
So far it's only been in moderate temperatures, -20C to +15C and no issues yet!
Do you have a brand for ASA you could recommend?
Also thank you for watching!
@@LucasBuildsStuff I absolutely LOVE eSun's ASA. ZERO post processing needed. I run a 0.4mm nozzle with 250°C nozzle and 90°C bed. All prints done on glass, though PEI will work for smaller components. Try to avoid sharp corners on the first layer (use a brim or raft) because it will try to peel up even with adhesive if the part is too thick/sharp corners/chonky. Also, no fans.
If you still have warping issues after trying that, you can bump the bed all the way up to 110 or so. However, I've only ever had the lifting/warping issue happen when i was printing basically a solid rectangular housing with stupid settings.
Its a great product, supports break off and leave zero witness marks, print quality is out of this world, and it feels nice to the touch. To me, it prints better than any other filament.
Also, thanks for providing the content! You're doing a great job.
Sorry for the late reply, I'll definitely try it out in one of my next projects! Thanks for the tips!
Can you build an iPad holder and put it in place of where you ended up putting the hvac controls for me please?
How much for the kits I'm ready to buy I have same dash in my Youkon xl
Need that
😃
Are you going to sell these? I need that set for my 04 Tahoe
This is cool bro. Do you have the .stl file for the spacing on the radio and ac control mount?
Thank you! I'm actually finishing a new indented version and hoping to eventually sell the kit - printers just acting up right now which has put a kink in my schedule
@@LucasBuildsStuff bro please sell this kit you will change the game for a lot of people!!! Idc what you charge I’ll pay it I love to support small business 🇺🇸
I was wondering if you sell these kits to the public or if you did it as a one off piece for your personal truck. It really looks amazing. I have an '02 duramax and have already swapped out the whole center console to the newer '03-'06 models as I always preferred the newer look compared to the 00-02 models. If you could let me know I'd appreciate. Thanks
Hey! Unfortunately I am no longer selling the kits
Lol 😂
If I was doing what you are doing I would tilt the screen towards me to give the appearance of an airplane cockpit, using some parts from the initial dashboard and extending them on one side to tilt it toward the driver you could also have tilting to the driver as standard but you could give it the capability of turning back flat by incorporating some bellows fabric and a simple threaded bolt could help it manoeuvre to tilted to the 2 going back flat and listen once you enter into a project like this the sky is the limit you can do what you want really I suppose the most simple way would be to purchase some sort of holding the voice that can swivel in any direction and build around the edges of the device with fibreglass to give that more professional look you might not get it on your first run but I assure you you will pick it up
Hi , just found your channel. I have a 2000 chevy 1500 4x4 extended cab. It has the center console. Was wondering if your kit would fit.
Hi, unfortunately I do not believe so, thanks for watching!
I would love to see how create these on fusion. I haven't found it in me to jump into fusion lol
I only need the kit for the radio and climate control can any help with that??
You selling these?? I have a 99 Sierra and I’d love this
I need that done to my truck
Could you do a 2016 cadillac escalade?
It looks do-able, I'll take a serious look into it in the next few weeks
Hey I really like this but I was wondering would you sell one as a kit for 06 Chevy 3500 for a iPad
Yes, I'm right now working on a updated version and making it fit the iPad Pro as well, hopefully I'll have the video done soon! 🙂
Can you build one for 2003 Chevy Silverado same setup for ipad?
When I check online it says 2003 Silverado 1500's have the same dash bezel as 2500hd's but I don't have a 1500 to compare to sorry, you'll have to do some research
Yeah it's nice and everything but if you live on a hot weather you gonna need the ac vent
Dude how much to send a kit
Hey I have a truck like that will it be possible to buy the mounts you've created how much with shipping
I only have the STL files for sale, you'll need to find someone with a 3d printer
where there is will there is a way
@ Lucas Builds Stuff. Sell a kit for my 2008 Lincoln MKX with an 2021 iPad 10.2?? dimensions listed here (9.87” x 6.85” x 0.3”)
I'm really hoping to eventually offer other kits!
If I was you I would not mess with the way you have it as it is stopping sun glare at the angles you have it at that moment also with the lip of the frame that you have it are helping to shadow it from the sun's glare happy mistake I am not all the way through the video so I do not know if you change it or stay with it the way you have
What material is it made out of? PTEG?
Hey! Yes, PETG
@@LucasBuildsStuff great work
What printer do you use?
Ender 3 with Ender Extender Kit
Its a sin this video having less than a thousand likes
Fucking legend
Do you sell the files to this kit we can buy to print ourselves?
Not at this time, maybe in the near future
The Dash Kit STL Files are now available, linked in the description! Thanks for watching!
Dude I have a chevy avalanche 2005 do you sell this kit
Hey! If it's the same as the 2005 Silverado then it'll fit!
Do you have the stl files still ?
The Dash Kit STL Files are now available, linked in the description! Thanks for watching!
Hey would u sell a one these as a kit I got a 03 tahoe lmk
Hey! I have an updated version: th-cam.com/video/AeFrfc5SkDQ/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for watching!
How can I buy one of them from you?
I've had to stop sales for the time being sorry
Can we get the final file?

Tablets are not made to withstand the heat and cold tolerances required for in-dash use.
Probably but I haven't had any issues yet
Have u made any kits to sell
Yes, but we're still early stages so there might be a bit of a wait time
Anyway u can make one so u still use the vent like maybe some holes
I’d like one for a iPad
I sounder if there is a way u could use a reverse camera
Unfortunately there isn't enough room
you might want to try 3d scanning. make your work much faster and confident.
I got a CR Lizard a month or two ago, but still haven't opened the box 😅
You went through all that, and didn’t use an ipad ! WHY?
Not an Apple fan 😃
Whyyyy 😂😂
Is there a way u can keep the vent i wanna buy one
Hey! I don't believe so, thanks for watching!
How much is this
Hey! We temporarily paused sales, I'll update this comment when we start selling again
terminal block would definetly be a safer method than exposed screw heads. or butt splices for a more permanent connection
www.amazon.ca/10Pcs-Terminals-Electric-Barrier-12-terminal/dp/B077D69TSD/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&keywords=terminal+block&qid=1620183355&sr=8-9
and step drill bit might be a tool worth having in your arsenal. Beats a spade bit when drilling into flat plastics and metal consistently.
love the build. Definitely can relate with the "quirky" wiring of diy car stereos. I'm part of the problem though. i ended up doing some janky shit to get mine working in a 97 honda civic
