So I've been looking to pick up a new headunit since my Alpine CDA-9807 died late last year. I've been looking for something to keep me and my girlfriend, who just got an iPod happy. Her CD player, that's a Sony, has the AUX input on the front. She's kinda gotten pissed because my stock headunit has no such thing. I then saw this last night on Crutchfield.
Sony CDX-GT610Ui and iPod
I'm thinking great, it will match all of the blue lights in my car, and she can be happy because she can control her iPod through the CD player since it comes with the needed cable. (

)
Now, she has the iPod Gen2, and I don't want it just laying there when we are in the car. I don't want it to break or any craziness. Now I was thinking about making a mount for it to come out on the passenger side of the center dashboard trim, and I can run that cable where there is a gap between it and the shifter bezel. Has anyone has any expierence with this or any pictures?
