Cheap iPod holder

[cnatalie]

Okay, so I don't have any pictuers of the install (because I'm a deutschebag) but here's how it turned out. The mount is from Panavise. (http://www.panavise.com/index.html?pageID=1&id1=30&startat=1&--woSECTIONSdatarq=30&--SECTIONSword=ww) The cradle I fabbed from an old aluminum shelf I had laying around (note the high class faux woodgrain). The plug at the top is where I plug in the XM module FM tuner I re-wired. Used that same aluminum shelf to fab-up a bracket that fits perfectly into where the tape deck was, covered with pleather I took off an old CD catalog (I'm really startin' ta red-neck up on ya now ain't I). Switch is from Autozone (have to turn it off to get regular radio). The great part is that I happened to have all of this laying around (except fot the panavise mount. Had to return one from a previous vehicle to get one for my XL) . Anyways (again, deutschebag) works great for me, woodgrain is always a conversation piece. Enjoy!

I'm working on it; appearently it's too big and I'm too dumb to figure out how to fix it. Until I do, just imagine it's really neat.

See 'em? Now everyone will think you dumb when they read your response... at least until they read this one and realize that I edited it. I feel like I may have just time traveled. Now make like a tree and get out of here!
