Default Help on mounting Sirius radio receiver...

I have this Sirius unit and I was thinking about mouting it in the ash tray area. Anybody have any ideas, tips, or pics on how to do this. Would I have to use fiberglass? I'm a newb when it comes to custom mounting locations like this.



edit: I don't need the buttons on top, they can be hidden. I would just like to have the screen visible, and still be able to close the ashtray door.

Some have monuted it to their visor with a clip and hide the wire along the top. I however remove tmy ashtray all together and squeezed the mounting clip in there and bolted it up. It aint exactly pretty but I can easily get to it to change the channel and never take my eyes off the road.

If you like I'll post a pic in a day or two.

you can fit it behind the ashtray maybe. But if you want the screen to show, you'll need to cut some of the ashtray brackets behind the door.

I cheated and just velcroed it vertically to the inner side of the dash surround by the ash tray.

Rotate your image 90 degrees counter clockwise and that's how it sits.
