rooting the Galaxy Tab two should not be that hard just do some googling or searching around on the interwebyou will most likely use a program called Odin to complete the task and its very easy to use.

Yea I mean I guess I'm not as concerned with rooting but I just wanna do whatever I have to do to get audio and charge power out of USB.

It seems like usb audio for your tablet isn't supported yet. If so, you could of used a DAC capable of usb input. There's no way you can go with the 90 degree 3.5 plug?

Made a decision to bypass a single din head unit and go directly in a sound processor from the nexus. This is the one I just ordered. Once I get it then the real install will begin:Big Laugh:

Lol I see myself swapping out the galaxy tab for a nexus 7 in the future....But yea I guess i'm giving up the usb audio dream for now...I'm just gonna run the 3.5mm for audio :whymewhyme:, I'm gonna be back home in Michigan at about 5 tomorrow and the first thing I'm doin is going in the garage to work on the truck...One more thing I didn't think about is where I'm going to put the EQ!

Mounted my amp under my second row and ran rcas, speaker wire, and power wire to it this evening! Decided that I'm just going to mount the eq inside the center console facing up, I won't really be using it for anything regularly, and if I want a physical volume button ill just throw a pac lc1 in my dash somewhere which now that I think about I'll prolly get soon and put it in lol Tomorrow night I'll be putting my door speakers in and depending on how fast I can do that I might be able to get a test run with everything :D

Nice work. I got to kick myself in the ass and get started too.
I think I'll also be putting the amp and sound processor in the center console. That will keep wiring much easier, and there seems to be a lot of room in there. If it gets too hot, than I'll probably install a pc fan to draw the heat out.

Yea man that center console is GREAT for running and concealing wires in, theres so much space. Today when I get home I'm going to get those door speakers in....Not too excited though because I hate removing door panels, seems like they never go back on as tight as they were before after you take them on and off..

I'll probably go to the dealership and get some of those white clips, they always tend to get loose at the bottom of panel which is annoying. You could always put some self tappers, lol.
I would check online for a diagram or pics to know exactly where all the screws are located. It's always fun when your pulling on the panel and mistaking a clip for a screw and plastic cracks.
