anyone got any experience of these ?
http://www.dashmount.co.uk/images2/audiconsole.htm

I've just had a phone installed in a new A4 and the installer used a naff
plastic bracket clipped beside the aircon, running the cable up into the
dash by the glove box! Looks totally naff and the screen is angled such that
youcant see it properly!

He was unwilling to mount the kit on the centre consol using a screw-on
mount. (Lease car)

Me thinks I'll just pull the glove box, reroute the cable and use a screw-on
mount and be done with it, but the fancy pod thing looks rather neat -
thoughts?

Thanks - Mike

Hi Mike

I bought one of these six months ago for my own lease car and they ar
really easy to install; you will need two stereo removal keys which yo
can purchase from the same site as well to be able to pull out th
stereo, behind which you'll see a screw that you can fix the bracket t
if you wish (I say this because the srew is actually quite high up, and
depending on your phone cradle, it might prevent the cup holder openin
above. I had this problem, so put the bracket in a lower postio
without the phone cradle falling off!).

The cables will probably still need to be routed up the side of th
glovebox, but there is a small gap between the edge of this and th
centre console so you should, with a little bit of effort, be able t
push the cables in there without too much hassle.
