Default iPad as head unit?
This may be a stupid question. I'm looking to install a sub/amp in my 2013 F150. I have an ipad mounted in the dash in place of the stock radio face. Will this be an issue when installing the amp/sub or will I be able to make it work? Any help is appreciated.

First question in my mind is what is the sound quality like? The Ipad is not truly made to be a HU. Yes it will work but....
