I had my package run like this:
Nexus 7 > OTG Y Cable (1) > Powered USB HUB
> DAC Audio convertor (USB to RCA connection to your amplifier > Amplifier
> USB extention cable > 32GB Jumpdrive (Located in my center console)
> RTL-SDR (FM Tuner) (Antenna was tucked away in my dash)
> Joycon Steering Wheel control Module *Not Installed*
5v+ (Switched) > OTG Y Cable (2) > Nexus 7
5v+ (Switched) > USB Hub
I used a cigarette lighter style USB charging adaptor wired to a switched 5v current to provide the charging to both the HUB and Tablet, alternatively you could use something like this: http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00JGFEQLE/
I have not removed this system from my car yet. So any pictures of wire routing would have to wait. But i will provide full pictures of the Nexus working together will all of the accessories listed.
A build resembling mine that I used for ideas:
