Because ipod mini docks are expensive, I designed a housing to use iPad 2/3 dock's internal PCB.

Because ipod mini docks are expensive, I reused iPad 2/3 docks to build fully functional mini dock. These iPad docks are much cheaper.

The disassembly of the iPad dock is tricky, you need to pull out the bottom part from the top covar while the metal part is glued to the cover. After that you need to drill out the melted bottom part's plastic from the metal weight. After removing the weight, just some small melted pins holds the PCB. 

After the assembly I ised superglue to hold together the top and bottom part. The fitting is not perfect, but quiet good.

Tested with:

iPod mini 2nd (1st gen works too!)

iPod nano 2nd
