Alternative to New $$$ Radio/Moving the Auxiliary jack

Hi guys, first time posting here, though I have been searching through the forums a lot. I recently got tired of having my phone on a windshield mount, and wanted a new radio dash unit, but after looking at the prices, I wasn't ready to pay out the 400-600 bucks to install an Android based touch screen system. This is my alternative. My 2011 Prius 2 ( I believe it is a 2) has no bluetooth for audio either so this was my second hurdle. I decided to mount my unused Galaxy Tab 3 8in using a CD Slot mount. That was $30 bucks (Amazon Prime). One problem down. But now I didn't want a cable running from my Tablet mount all the way to my center console. One thing led to another and suddenly it felt like I had half the panels off. It was a bit scary, but relatively easy. I used a 6 foot Aux cable from Walmart( ~$9) and that give me plenty of space to spare. I Use my phone (T-Mobile) as a hotspot to power Waze, Google Maps, and Pandora. I also have a bluetooth obd2 adapter and Torque. Probably my favorite part, I use AutomateIt Pro( ~$2 Play Store) to automate wifi/bluetooth start up, pandora, Torque, and screen brightness when the car starts and when I turn off the car it shuts everything down, conserving my tablet's battery. More pictures to ensue, these are just from the moving of aux cord through the bottom of the center console, through the shifter panel, behind the climate controls, down to the spare accessory slot below to Power button.

 

Here is my update: the mount I used

It does cover a tad of the center vents, but I haven't noticed a difference as of yet.

As you may or may not be able to notice, I can easily reach the lower half of the the screen without moving my hand off the shifter( it helps with making dedicated touches). Pandora runs wells, though I would like to have bigger buttons for the pause and next. Torque is really amazing and intuitive, and has helped me improve my driving habits, as well as learn how my prius works. The cable bundle as of now has been left like that, I am not sure if I am going leave it there. If I do I will drill a small hole in the original black accessory filler to make it look slightly more professional. I might end up rerouting the cables closer to the tablet. Also complimentary pictures of my LED set I put in about a week ago for about 20 bucks..that includes door courtesy lights, headlight running light(?) license plate lights and trunk light.

 

I definitely understand. You should check out this guy's set up, his Clearly leaves his vents open and away from his tablet. I am having issues placing links in my posts as I made an account today but google: radioactive yak prius. First link has this guys tablet set up that I mentioned. If no luck I will post link tomorrow.
