My Custom Asus TF101 Car Dock - Eee Pad Transformer Accessories

After a long process of checking the forums and reading on the numerous ways to add a car dock/mount for the asus tf101, i took it upon myself to revert back to custom install days. What i did was purchase a Car Kit Swivel Air Vent with Super Strong Slim Holder for Asus Eee Transformer TF101 from ultimate-mobiles.co.uk. I didn't want to mount the vent adapter so i cut holes on the side of the dash and placed the tablet hold portion into the dash. What i used was a filing kit, a hand saw, a razor, a screwdriver, and some cotter pins. about 4 hours i had a finished product. Its not perfect but im sure you can tell from the photos.
I can slide the tablet in and out securely with no problem. the left side i had to cut the tab off next to the volume button. This wasn't the best dock cause it was made for the vertical position. I should have order this dock, Strong Windscreen Suction Mount Holder for Asus Eee Transformer TF101, which was made for the horizontal position. But in the end it still worked out like i wanted it to. Oh and by the way the dash pieces i used where extras, i went to a junk yard and found another mustang and took those piece for $5. Sorry for no hyperlinks but im restricted cause of less then 10 post.
Finally here are the pictures.

Nice job on this DIY setup, i just wussed out and bought one of those flexible neck seatbolt mounts, and it wobbles like a mofo.

Thanks.

That's nice. I just got the ExoGear mount. Not my favorite setup but it will work for now in my escape.
Hoping to get an F150 one of these days and then I'll look into mounting it into the dash somehow.
Again, nice work though. Minimal is best!

I still have to have the stock radio to use the aux output. i haven't found a way or attempted to look for a way to hookup the aux output without having the radio installed. im sure there's a way and ill try it later.

Are you familiar with the site mp3car.com? Check out their forums. Maybe there is a solution on that site that can help you out.

You might be able to run a line from the headphone jack to an amp hidden in the dash, but that might not look so good. Might not sound so good, either, if the TF doesn't put out enough to drive the amp. Is there room behind the dash to hide a small head unit with bluetooth?
Looks pretty good as it is really. What are you using for power? I was looking for a car charger for the TF for a while but gave up after nothing really worked. That was a long time ago though.
