Talking NEW! Welcome To The Acura TL Social (10 Pics)

Custom made 80GB Zune Center Console Holder. Daytime pics will come soon.


When stealth mode is engaged, Trap doors close right over the top as seen below.






When not connected, simply store your stereo mini plug neatly and safely in its designated resting spot as seen below.

If you choose to remove the device away from its resting place, the stereo mini plug easily and freely extends out further to meet your needs.

And then you kill'em with the clean look.....

Talking Daytime Pics (10 Pics)




Plug Stores away in its resting spot when not in use as seen below.




Zune In its holder as seen below.

Zune Out of its Holder and Plug Stored away as seen below.

AND! for everyone that is moaning and groaning about "no way would i ever give up my cup holders", The center console area converts back to its original cup holder state when needed. No need to worry about loosing any cup holders here. Put that in your pipe and smoke it! LMAO

Probably, not sure tho. Iphone is even longer then the Zune 80GB and there isnt a whole lot of room in there. We'd have to take a look at an actual Iphone and see how it would work to be able to put it there. Plus u need space for a cable as well. Its possible that something could most deffinitely be created. Hit me with a PM if u want to talk further about this...

Where is the MP3 player when all this is happening? We were talking about having the MP3 player mounted and still functioning while using the cupholders at the same time. Looks like an either or situation with you.

The MP3 player would be in the in the center console arm rest box, because of where i have the wire running through, My setup can meet any situation i need. Plus, no food or drink allowed in my whip, thats why my shit be so clean. So in my situation, no, cup holders are not important to me. But does my setup accomodate for them if and when they are needed, Hell yea lol. So hands down, i love it. But thanks for the good comments and everything.

This doesnt pertain to you personally KSuchdeve, but to everyone else out there,

I recently ran a cable for my ipod up through the cupholders as you did. However my ipod just sits in the cupholders and rattles around. I wanted to make something similar to what you have. Did you have that custom made? I'm trying to get some ideas of how to go about doing this for my iPod nano.

Wasn't tryin to sound like a dick or anything. The job is super clean. Luckily for me, my head unit hooks up to and charges my iPod and has touch screen controls to use the iPod, so it just stays in my glove box.

If you know anything about photography, youll know to not be fooled by pictures or by how things look in a picture, atleast for night time pics that is. Reason why is because when u take a night time picture, because there is not much light at night time, the shuter speed has to be set slower so that more light enters into the camera, thus giving you a picture where everything appears to be much more lit due to a longer exposure. Maybe thats why u feel that my guages look so well lit up. I mean, in person they're not super super blown out bright if thats what u see in the photo but in person there normal, they function and light up as they should with there normal full brightness. Looks plenty bright in person to me.

Yes, I am curious too how you hooked it up. Blitzsafe? And where did you get an 80 GB Zune? Is it only available thru the website or can it be purchased at stores now too?

Very clean install, BTW. Looks like original equipment!

Its not in stores yet, online and from zune site as well. I dont care what anyone says, the new Zune is the best mp3 on the market right now. Blows the Ipod Classic and itouch away, but well save this debate for another thread section lol. I have the blitzsafe, ive had it for a long time. I did it a loooonnnggggg time ago, just didnt have a zune back then, had a DELL DJ mp3 player back then.
