How about its way too big, its an eyesore, probably dangerous to use during normal driving, and it literally looks like someone stuck it on the top cubby hole door with double sided tape. There's no thought into doing something like that.. I can tape a tablet PC to my dash too, but I choose not to because its retarded.. Its not innovative.. Its got FAIL written all over it.

Until someone actually custom molds something that into a dashboard, and actually makes it look good.. My OPINION on this will remain the same.

Funny how you also have an Ipad in your Z and you are the only one firing up about negative comments.. I-fanboy much?
That's fine I'm not saying don't have an opinion about it. Even though your opinion is heavily subjective.

There is no thought in doing this? Thats funny cuz I distinctively remember putting plenty of thought into my install, as im sure the op and other diy's have. If its not innovative then why are reputable companies like metra and schosche looking into possible iPad mounts for vehicles? I am not a fanboy, however I do enjoy my iPad plenty. I appreciate your opinion, I'm just saying give the guys who take time out of their day for the community the credit they deserve.

The term 'butthurt' is hilarious and I've never heard it before but thass all besides the point.

I think it's cool and I disagree with the notion that it looks like it was slapped up there or that it's too big for the space. I'm sure you'll be mindful of the road cause, well you're an adult and its the responsible thing to do, so I don't get that jab coming your way either. As far as smash and grab, effed up people take things that don't belong to them, unfortunately thass the world we live in, I'm sure you were cognizant of that fact also so I don't understand the comments regarding the possibility of theft. Think I've seen people's Z's on cinder blocks on this forum for stock rims so, um, yea, thanks for pointing out the obvious fellas.

Anyway, I think there is a classy way to say you don't like something and then there is the other way.......

Hope you enjoy your mod man, thanks for posting.

To each is own.

I can't personally think how I would mount my I-pad in my car. That being said I think its a geat job.

Not for me but its more about the excution I think.
