Decided to pull my N7 out of the TL and revert it to stock, so I'm selling a one-off custom integration kit to install a N7 into your dashboard with USB audio integration (requires running a custom ROM like AUTODROID on your N7)
I have a ton of labor in this setup, I literally spent around 8 to 10 hours or more fabricating parts, making & getting the brackets to line up perfectly for the HVAC display board & soldering.
Included is:
- Auto-Trans Center Console Bezel w/ HVAC display board mounted
- Custom trim piece, wrapped in vinyl to fill in the gap below the tablet
- Non-Nav 04-06 Bezel retrofitted for 2012 Nexus 7 Installation
- iSimple DuaLink (to add AUX-Input)
- Behringer UCA 202 USB DAC
- Custom Shielded USB-OTG Y-Cable w/ 20AWG Power Wires
- CPT 25W 12V to 5V Power Supply w/ DC Adapter for 7-port USB Hub
- 7-Port USB 2.0 Hub
- Anker 18W 12V to 5V Power Supply (to Power the Nexus 7)
Items photo'd to illustrate installation but not included in the sale (sorry I need them for the car still)...
- HVAC switches w/ extended wires for HVAC display relocation
- Extended wires on OEM harness for HVAC display relocation
In a few weeks I'll have an extra set of HVAC switches and then I can lengthen the wires and include a set of HVAC switches with extended wires in the sale.
So things you'll have to provide to complete the installation:
- Nexus 7 2012 version tablet (bezel is not designed to fit the 2013 version).
- Root the tablet & install AUTODROID or other USB-OTG capable ROM (free)
- Soldering skills to splice in the CPT power supply
- Soldering skills to extend your OEM harness
If you're local (Southern California) either in the San Diego or Inland Empire area then I can offer installation service of the entire setup for an additional $200, including rooting, bootloader unlocking (if desired), installing autodroid on your tablet and extending your OEM harness. It would probably be about 3 to 5 hours of labor. Can be done in my garage or at your place, up to you, however I would require full-payment for parts and half-payment for labor before beginning work and the rest upon completion.
If you're not local or want to install it yourself I can offer distance tech support via PM to answer questions and help along the way with your installation as needed, I can even make a video to teach you how to do a really clean in-line splice free of charge ;)
Price for the setup: $275 shipped or $255 local pick-up, $455 installed if you're local and want me to install it. Remember though, you have to provide the tablet!

FOLLOWING ITEMS ARE NOT INCLUDED BUT NEEDED
Switches w/ Extended Wires
I WILL INCLUDE A DIFFERENT SET OF HVAC SWITCHES W/ EXTENDED WIRES -- but I have to wait about a week or two to have them in my possession. Reason I won't include these specific ones is because they're converted from incandescent bulbs to LED bulbs and I'm not spending the time to convert them again. This will also delay shipping of this as I need to make the set of switches with extended wires. If you don't want the switches I'll knock $30 off the price.

These videos show a different USB DAC, the UCA 202 does not have to be turned on and off like the FiiO does.
