Dash Cubby Hole/Lid Cluster

Can you detail how you got the tablet to stay in place?

The tablet is an HTC flyer. The app is indeed Torque.

I got the item to stay in place by screwing a small block into the bottom of the cubby which I then used 3M DuraLock to connect to the tablet. It's ugly but it works.

I still need to move it though so that I can get the tablet more flush.

Wow, is anything like this available to buy for the Z?

Not really. Most are one-off DIY projects. There is good info on the forum if you search. CarbonSignal made a product that fit like the OEM Nav, but I think they abandoned it after only a few sales due to lack of interest - you can search for those details as well.

Just do a search on Ipad Mini Install and you'll see a dozen or more threads on this, but to answer your question, No there's nothing available to buy out the box for this. Most of us came up with a design on our own or just paid a shop to custom make one.

Heres Mine.

I'm working on something. Just need to finalize everything with AK370Z before I put mine up for sale.

Oh sick if this coming out soon, I will wait for this rather than going and spending $700 on 3 new gauges.

Fifieldfabrications.com has an iPad mount you can customize for dash installs. Still takes a diy job to make it work but it's a big help to make a clean professional install.
