Someone just needs to make one of these with the screen already built in.
it should actually be the norm tbh
Thats what im waiting on i like the look but the software not so much its too vulnerable you have to update i have alpine currently i would like that software made bigger like this the problem with this is if the internet is compromised in any way you cant do shit with it my current setup has usb external dvd and navi its goin to work no matter what
Awesome video man. Very clear and precise with everything. I loved how you shared all the applications you use and where to get them!
Just study this set up and apparently they have a new version that u can pop the tablet out now
Thought about getting this, but after watching it just seems like too much of a hassle considering what I would get.
Thanks for the detailed video
Nice job finding all these little workarounds (cutting plastic trim to access the home button, bluetooth controller, power-in, etc) but seems like way more trouble than its worth tbh.
This is sick! Clean install to 👌
Great Video! Thanks alot :)
Thanks for the review!
I was wondering what your thoughts are after having this for a while and if you would change anything?
Also, how long did you have to wait between ordering and received?
Going to be doing this soon
Just bought a 370z yesterday and I’m already purchasing this set up lol
Don't waste time nice🔥👏
So, I am going to purchase this install, but question. I already have a Kenwood double din with rear camera. Does brainiac offer a module to retain my aftermarket backup camera that is integrated into the Kenwood unit? Basically wanting to retain that analog jacked camera and use it with the tabs display beings I will be not using the double din radio any longer. And lastly, this set up will integrate fine with the factory bose system? Does it simply interface with a module supplied via brainiac to retain that bose system with factory bose amp.
I got this set but the noise background interference is ridiculous. Did you ever have background noise problem? What do you recommend to fix it?
How's the sound quality compared to the head unit you had before?
This is the best way to do it imo... How well does the DAC work in the bluetooth receiver?
Thanks! Too bad no detailed installation but i get what you have done!
Thanks! As I said, for the plastics themselves brainiac explqins it in good detail. Are you using an aftermarket amp to drive your speakers?
No i plan to use the factory one for the time being. But i could change my mind. I end up getting the 2019 version of the Tab A since they only sell the s-pen version of the 2016 model in Thailand (and it is too big for the trey in the brainiac kit). The good thing is the home button now presents electronically so i do not have to saw the plastic out. However, only a few root instructions out there as it is still new (it is a pain as you suggest). The twrp file for 2019 is not on twrp.me yet. So i might try to fit it in first and root later.
Rooting mine was a pain in the ass. The instructions were a bit out dated. Had to try a handful of different android versions and rooters to get it to work.
The Carizon wow! So you have to change the version of the operating system too? That sounds difficult! Have you experience the boot loop too? Some warns that might happen if you get it wrong.
@@sanhapie did u figure out how to change the files for the 2019 tablet? i also do not want to saw our the plastic for the 2016 one.
Does it work with backup and dash cam?
Where does brainiac talk about rooting your tablet to access the system files for the turn on and off power setting?
Anyone made the 3D print STL file for this yet?
^ Anybody??
Well after the negative that you mention ik not sure I want it now. Great review by the way.
One question. Can I install a back up camera with the tablet being there? Like can the tablet screen turn into a back up camera when you reverse?
I'm sure it is possible, I want to do ot myself but need to think about how to make it work. Probably AV to USB then use an OTG app.
Because of your video I'm going to go down the amplifier route as well. How is the call quality with the plastics covering the tablet?
I haven't used the microphone on the tablet before, I took a video once and the audio wasn't all that bad. But I was stationary.
Could this be installed on a 2010 370Z??
Any one know of an existing template download for it, the plastics and easily be printed with a high quality printer
Here's one for a similar device for the Z you would have to make some adjustments if you want to use the Tab A though.

To use the navigation do you need to have internet on the tablet?
I think this actually moreso depends on the app you are using on the tablet. For example, in Google Maps you can actually choose to download maps over Wi-Fi so that you can still run google maps offline. But if you run navigation offline then you lose the chance on getting real-time updates such as collisions and speed traps and such.
Do you have a backup camera?
Great review! Yes, we're trying to find a way to bring down the price of the plastics. Right now we're only making 10% margin on the 370z plastics. Yeah, I know... Shapeways costs a lot to do their printing! Have you tried our Brainiac home screen launcher app to use gestures to navigate home/back/switcher and volume control instead of the physical buttons? Always looking for feedback so please do feel free to share with us what you like and don't like :)
I prefer using my own apps over the workshop twelve one.
The price is really far out there, and I believe it has actually gone up now that Workshop 12 has pieced it out into four separate parts.
@@thecarizon504 Fair enough, hopefully we can get our app to a point someday where it will meet your needs :) Our plastics were at a set price point with Shapeways, and then over night Shapeways doubled the cost of printing! We then had to split the model up into 4 pieces to try and bring the price back down as much as we could within their new pricing algorithms because they wanted $800 to print the plastics! It was crazy. We're going to start to bring printing some of the parts of the plastics in-house to try and reduce the cost. But Shapeways is charging us an arm and a leg and they unfortunately actually have the best price around :(
Was about to say, y'all should try in-house printing. Sounds like you are already ahead of the game though! Hope it works out, would be great to see the price drop on this kit!
@@thecarizon504 Yeah, we can do some in-house like the tablet cradle and support stand. Hard to compete with Shapeways's $100K industrial printers for a finished surface quality
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect My plastics just came in and I was wondering if I could go with the 2019 Tab A that supports 4G LTE? I'm seeing tons of incorrect product dimensions for the new model, but it would be nice to have it's own sim card rather than relying on tethering from my phone.
Hey man, idk if you'll see this but I went ahead an installed one of these. Looks great, but where did you ground yours? I'm habing some background static I cant get rid of.
It shouldn't be a grounding problem with the tablet, did you recently upgrade your amp / speakers? How is your tablet connected to the amp?
Any plastic like this for 2014 370z touring ?
How d u connect your phone and make calls ? Is it possible ?
Nice mod mate can you play music from your phone or does it have to be the tablet
You can play music from any bluetoorh device that can pair to the adapter.
Anyone know of a good stereo guy in Los Angeles. I have static noise in the background when there’s no sound getting pushed
How did you manage the static noise from the speaker? Using that tablet?
Did you figure out the fix? I have the same problem
So I went to this audio shop and the guy tells me is the factory audio gain control settings which can’t be adjusted and is not combatible with the after market mk 1.5. That I basically cant do anything about it.
I'm not sure what this mk 1.5 is that you are referring to, is this in a 370Z? Are you trying to install a tablet?
For me, I installed an aftermarker amplifier and a bluetooth to audio jack adapter to stream music from the tablet to the amp.
So i normally use Pandora via bluetooth from my phone. Without buying a separate network adaptor, id still have to run music and navi through blutooth on my phone, right?
You could install pandora on the tablet and then use your phone as a network hotspot for data to the tablet.
@@thecarizon504 Thanks. This looks so good but Im not sure it's worth all the hassle....
If running the torque app do the gauges on that app allow you to have the tablet vertical ? Thanks
Yeah, the gauges work vertically.
@@thecarizon504 Thanks man!! I can't wait to install this in my 350z!!
They also charge $418 for the 350Z
Can I use this kit with the stock speakers? I have a 2013 370 touring with Bose
You could, but you will have to find a way to power them. I suppose you could some how maintain the factory stereo, tuck it back some how and run an aux cable to the tablet. But the only guaranteed way to make it work is to use an after market stereo.
If you hadn't cut out the plastic to show the home button, what would your options have been? How could you navigate to home/back/open tabs
Android auto/braniac's app which are designed to not need those buttons.
@@thecarizon504 is the app fine to use or is it worth to cut out the bottom to use the home buttons?
@@carterluong1222 if you don't care to download your own apps than their app will work just fine. I personally lile using torque/power amp so I cut out the buttons.
Chinese android radios work better for me. Built-in steering wheel controls and navi ready.
You can use Tasker instead of rooting
I don't believe tasker allows you to set the tablet to turn on when power is detected. This is handled by the LPM system file.
Are you able to run Waze with out hot spot or WiFi?
No Name no
that wing holy shit lmao
Is there a way to connect the controls on the wheel to the tablet?
Also if it can be connected to a dash cam as well?
There is a way, I use a Bluetooth controller though. And for the dash cam I bought the vanjoy rear view mirror dash cam, it works and a reverse back up camera too it's pretty dope!
@@meezh Thanks!
How bad does the glare get in direct sunlight?
I haven't experienced much glare, the Z's rear windshield is of course at an angle so not much sunlight from behind and the side walls of the plastic do well at keeping out what little sunlight hits it through the side windows.
which app did you use to turn off the tablet?
Tasker
Quick question bro can you do it with a IPAD cuz I not a big fan of andriod
That would require a different set of plastics.
interest in upgrading to the new plastics? seems like a few issues of yours would be solved.
Not any time soon, the plastics are expensive! But they do look more updated.
Did you get your steering wheel controls to work?
No, haven't tried to fix it yet. Got around it by using a bluetooth adapter with integrated volume/track skip/play/pause
The Carizon what about the cruise control? Does it still work? I’m tuned and I need cruise control to activate my maps
@@tadeogaspar3068 cruise control still works.
Does the samsung tablet allow bluetooth connection to ur phone so u can play something off ur phone
The tablet connects to my amp via bluetooth, so if you want to play music from a phone, you simply switch the bluetooth connection to the phone and play it that way.
The Carizon oh ok thank you
How do you wire in the radio?
I didn't, threw the radio out and hooked it up to an amplifier.
Can you connect it to an aftermarket amplifier/subwoofer system?
Yes, that's exactly what I did, using a bluetooth receiver and splitting the aux into components
How is it with Texas heat?
I put up a sun visor and have limo tint on the back windows. It has yet to overheat.
3:30 for heat problems
So i looked on their site what plastics did you get i notice it's like $800 worth from the site?
They did recently bump their price up but didn't realize it was that high.
I think they have it split into like four pieces now.
@@thecarizon504 Yeah its pretty spendy now
@@2012JRB that sucks.
I spoke to them earlier about it and they said they are trying to print in-house to bring the price down.
The Carizon was your painted? They are selling it now in raw plastic that needs to be sanded and painted. The price is now 299 but that may be because they aren’t ready to install pieces
@@Tati7111 yes, you can use flat black krylon paint, it's a perfect match.
It’s nice but it looks weird with the A/C dials
Can it be done in a 350z
I think they have the plastics for it, but you should check their website.
I'd love too but 300 just for plastics got me fucked up just going double din
It’s too bad Joying, Atoto or any of the other quality android head unit makers don’t have a plug and play option for these cars because this is not it. It’s too much when you can just buy a universal head unit with a 10-13” screen. A tablet isn’t feasible. At least with a dedicated head unit you don’t have to worry about charging or overheating. And you get a beautiful floating display if that’s what you want. This just seems bad in every way compared to an android head unit.
Why would a permanently installed tablet require a battery in the first place?
It won't start if the battery is below a certain level. If there was a battery-less tablet that would work too.
@@thecarizon504 a power supply to replace the battery altogether would be better
@@charlesthomas135 that would be fairly complex, would have to replicate the battery characteristics. The battery monitor senses the charge level at startup and the tablet won't boot until it's above a couple percent or so.
I am wondering if someone is gonna create an after market fuel gauge that is colored instead of that hideous orange backlit that looked outdated even in 2009 LOL.
you forgot to say if it was worth it
Can you just do mine?😩
If you buy all the kit, prep and paint the plastics, and happen to live in the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex, I'd be happy to help.
That seems like a lot of work you could’ve just bought a Tesla style double den radio for less money and less work
Link?
From where?
The link is right there?
Add the link to where you found a double den that fits the 370z
You could buy a 3d printer and print the plastics out for less than 300 dollars...
You guys are better off 3dv printing. What a huge rip off of the price.. But then again as the presenter said, supply and demand
Half the video is the camera pointed at your face. I don't understand the reasoning behind this
sucks that it's android
It’s cool but man is this distracted driving
