Do you have the music come through the speakers? if so, how do you do it.. I don't have an aux port.. or do you have an aftermarket stereo?
I'm guessing the later...

I took this, cutoff the mounts in the back, attached zip ties and placed on my vent:
The arms and be narrowed or widdened and the side arms are removable. The arms ratchet and release with a click of a small button. I have an aux input, and hard wired a charger both of which come out my vent. Here it is in the lower right:

In my vette I use one of those cup looking things they sell at Mid America that holds phones, ipods, and it comes with a pen place for pens too.
But I also have a single din cup holder
I bought, whatever the name of them is.

not really, its low enough that its not affecting the air exiting. I did the same thing in my dd where I run the heater through the winter and no il affects from blowing hot air onto the phone from the past 2 years.

I just got it a couple weeks ago and was hesitant to use the vent mount, but was forced to when I broke the suction cup mount, being stupid.
