Default Sirius receiver mount

Anyone with the Sirius Sportster receiver in their Vette? After a year I still haven’t found a satisfactory way to mount it in the cockpit, so it just flops around on the console. Very uncool. The original mount that came with the kit requires drilling holes in the dash which I don’t care for. Then I got a suction mount that goes on the windshield. It seemed to solve the problem but looked rather conspicuous sitting above the dash like a radar detector. I’m thinking of trying the vent mount next. Has anyone come up with a better way to connect their satellite radio to the interior of their Vette?

I just keep it looking like a radar detector. It is mounted low enough to not block my outward vision but in comfortable reach of the controls. This is all the cops care about.

sportster was too big for my taste, I went with the Starmate replay.
it's small enough to fit in the ashtray area and still be able to close the door and make it invisable.

im seriously considering mounting mine inbetween my visors (z06). Ill have to cut the headliner (after i determine the replacement cost..anyone know?). I can run all the wires hidden and this will put it out of the way, but still accessable....Im still chewing on it, any and all suggestions welcome, and if i do it ill post pics so you can see if you like it (if you have a Z, im lazy and didnt look....)
