A few new pictures. When I first did it I put the circle in the middle so I could use the camera / Skype. But I don't like the way it looks so I will be pulling it out and filling it in touching up a few small pits and re painting it.

So did you have to trim much? You acted like it fit so well, could you have just added the L brackets and called it a day?

Yes and no. When I first measured the tablet the screen fits perfect into the metra kit and clears the hvac controls but when pushing the tab in. I found that it did hit and trimming was needed. Had I gone with the 7" tablet no trimming would have been needed but I had already bought the 9" so I just spent the extra few hours to make it work. And I wanted to use Skype exc so I made a circle for the camera. But that part looks like crap so it's getting filled back in

The screen is really bright so it's hard to take pic with out glare

Yes that's the one I got

Like I said that one will require modifying where a 7 inch tablet will not. But the 9" looks much better. Fills the space real good

How does the screen look from the drivers seat? The reviews give it hell for viewing from an angle.
