I'll grab a pic tomorrow but I have a neat little mount from www.dashmount.co.uk that fits real neatly onto the dash. I just used the double sided velcro to mount it.

Thats the spot i thought would be best when i was trying to figure out where to put it, somewhat out of site of prying eyes aswell and inline of sight. Take it that you used the velcro supplied.

Looks good and just the job, where did you get it from? I have been Halfords, Motorworld and could not find anything that would grip hold without it falling out.

Its a Halfords one but pretty much any one would do. Think it was a Type R one, the only reason I remember that is it was going in my Type R.

It's the sort that has 2 metal prongs that clip over the air vents. I just got a pair of pliers and squashed them flat and pushed them between the 2 pieces of trim in the picture. I Could take a few pics and send them on if you want.
