   A few people on here have made their own holders which sit in the space infront of the gearstick, they look smart. Have a search for ipod and you should find some pictures of them.

    I've bought 1 (off ebay), but i dint realise it was gonna be 1 of those suction pads for glass. Anyway my initial though was, ok i'll be able to stick inside the lil tray near the gear stick. But it doesnt want to stick there (at all).
    
    Any suggestions?

    looks good.
    
    But any1 got any ideas how to get mine to stick to the plastic?
    Is it not sticking because the plastic has that slight indented pattern on it, so it cant create a vaccume?
    I was thinkin could i put perspex in it? or perhaps do something to smooth it out?
