I am about to start a car installation of my 5G iPod. I have a Nissan Altima and my tapedeck just went belly up so now is the time to go with a hardwired solution.
I already have the cabling picked out, my challenge at this point is in the mounting.
I want to cut a hole in the console right under the ashtray area and mount a docking connector there. One like this:

The problem is, it will only be held in place by the connector itself. I live in the NE and the roads up here are terrible, like driving on cobblestone in some areas.
So I guess I am looking at some hybrid type holder, one that will secure it to the connector housing not just the connector itself.
Any thoughts\ideas?
