Default XM Radio Mounting

Just bought a XM radio "Delphi XT" last night and got it all installed I have the unit just have it sitting in front of my ash tray door for now but would like something more solidly mounted and out of the way of my nitrous switches inside my ashtray. I've seen the cupholder mounts on ebay and was wondering if anyone has used one of these or done any other neat mounts. I do have the airvent mount but thats not an option I wanna use thats the only vent I get to feel any air out of and I don't want it blocked. Pics would be really nice

I had mine behind the small door in the console, and I know yours is blocked. I have since moved it to the center vent...which is what you say you dont want to do, but Ive liked it up there. I can easily get to the buttons, view the screen, ect.

just fyi

I have mounted several XM ant's on the rear frame rail. XM worked just as good as all my other cars with the ant on the roof. You just have to take the tail light out to stick the ant on the frame. I like it this way mainly because you never see it or have it in the way.
