Don't flame me, I've searched.

I have a Dual deck in my Celica much like this one:

http://www.dualav.com/product_individual.php?main=2&id=459

It has in it an iPlug, which you can hook up your iPod into and play your music from your iPod from your head unit. Right now the iPlug is just hanging by the floor, but I need a good place to mount it so that I can start using it for my iPod. Does anyone else have this? Or, if you don't and you play your iPod in your car, where do you mount your iPod? I was thinking of putting them both in the glove compartment, but possibly mounting the iPod in the ashtray, that way it is easily accessible to take it out. Comments? Suggestions?

On another note: is it possible to move that storage space to above the deck? Or is it impossible because how the kit is designed?


It's easy to switch the two, just pull off the trim, unscrew the bracket that holds the HU and the pocket, pull it out, take the bracket off both sides, switch 'em, put everything back together. It uses different holes for the screws when you switch them, but they're there none the less.

If you dont mind leaving your cup holder open 24/7 go to a Scion Dealership and ask if they sell those Ipod holders, its like the bottom of a drink.. it snug and it holds either ipod mini or the 20gig ones.. I use one in my previa, but I just use the cig charger and Itrip... im too cheap to get the real ones.. hehe


I think that would bother me because of my short shifter.

Good, I want to switch them around. Thanks for the help.
