Did a few searches and couldn't locate anything in this forum. Please provide link(s) if I missed threads.
I want to replace the display and cassette deck in my double DIN with a 7" android tablet PC. An iPad or 10" tablet will not fit. I'll probably go with an Acer Iconia A100 tablet. Not sure if the OS is honeycomb or ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) but that doesn't matter.
My questions are mostly what components to buy (amp, connectors) and how / where to mount the amplifier and components to preserve sound quality. I've read that minimizing cable lengths of certain types of signals is very important. I'm either going to do this to a '97 BMW E39 (528i) or an '08 Merc Mariner (same as Ford Escape / Mazda Tribute)
Here's a link one guy's install:

Has anybody here been there / done that and have the scars to show?.... LOL
