I have my nexus 7 (2012 version, cost like $60 to buy and is in great operating condition) completely set up and ready, I've just been lazy about finishing the set up. USB ROM for Nexus 7 is perfect for setting up a Nexus 7, and you can get the 2012 version for free if you search. It doesn't have any more continued updates, but it's free. I believe there is a 2013 version released but costs some money. It has more support for it. Little fuzzy on the details though I did all this set up/research back in August.

Here is a link for some info:

Here is how I set up my Nexus:

It turns on automatically with car boot if its plugged into power and will immediately shut off into a deep sleep mode when power is stopped. Mine is set up to use torque with an OBD32 plug via bluetooth, but dash command is also viable. The biggest cost would be trying to make it look OEM like which is what I'd like. Wish there was a plug and play option.


Just messing around a while back with positioning and how it felt to use while driving and all.
check out my post in the audio&video forum. or even my pic i posted a few pages earlier of my tablet integration.

The only downside with going with a Nexus 7 Gen 1 and Gen 2 is that they are discontinued and hard to find in good shape. I did have a user wanting to use Gen 2 and I have a design for it. Hopefully I can get my stuff up and running soon to sell, but you'd have to at least upgrade to a Nexus 7 Gen 2 if you like my design.
