to start this off..
06.29.10 - i was bored today and i thought of doing something about the ipod aux cord since it came out the bottom of the centre console.. i don't even smoke.. so i could use the ashtray for something else! so i've decided to make a ipod dock out of it.. =D here's how i did it =)
i started taking my centre console apart so i could reroute the wire.. mess here xD
marked where i needed to do the modifications
how i want it to sit.. OM NOM NOM, FEED ME MUZIK.
tool for the job.. my akdrill47. forgot to take note of what drill bit size i used
guess it varies from what type of aux cord you have..
i also used the dremal and did the cutting and then tada !
here's the back
pulled the plug through the hole i made, and taped up the extra space. only space available is for the wire to go through
looks normal when it's closed
SURPRISE!
how it'll sit.. i'm gonna make something else that'll hold the ipod in place and i'll be sure to make it adjustable as well. but this is how it is for now!
i also mounted the amp onto the back seat so i could have more trunk space.. but who cares LOL.
stay tuned for more.. when i think of more.. xD thanks for viewing!
