Ipad Dash?

Probably wrong section and needs to go in Headunits but whatever.

Alright so unfortunately I totaled my Chrysler 200 last week (RIP bb). Just bought a 2014 Ford Fusion SE this weekend and it's okay..

But, first thing is first, audio.

The radio area is huge, but I hate it more than anything on the car, other than the fact it is slow as balls.

Anyways, The area is huge and I would love to put an Ipad Mini in the dash, but can't seem to find anything online with 2013 and up (I think that's when the fusion changed body styles).

Has anyone ever put an ipad mini in the dash of a Fusion or know someone that did? I know there was a dude somewhere on the forums that had an all stock Fusion but I can't remember his name or I'd tag him.

If I can't find anything for a good price I will probably just try to find a decent touch screen HU for around $300-500

Thanks guys

Good luck with that. With sync it's a pita. As of right now there is nothing we can do. I'm going with a processor

For 300-500$ you could contact a glasser to do what you want.

Youre the one I thought that had the Fusion. So you're just keeping the stock HU and getting a processor? What are you looking at getting? And is yours the one with the touchscreen or like mine, that has that bullsht little screen that isn't touch. Im telling you, I absolutely hate the whole radio/air conditioning thing, I just want it all out lol.

My Chrysler was ****** but, can't do anything about that now.

I'm doing a MS8 and having it run the stock 6 speaker for now. Same as you have. I can always expand off the ms8 when the time comes. Single 8 in the truck on a m1c when it gets here

So how exactly would that work if I wanted to upgrade the speakers to components? I literally know nothing about how proessors work. Is it HU to Processor to Speakers? Or HU to Processor to Amp to Speakers? I know the MS8 is a processor an amp, correct? But If I went with a cheaper processor how would that work and do you have any suggestions? I don't want to spend $850 on a ms8, lol.

Shit nevermind. Theyre like $430 on amazon. That is worth it.
