Great mod, I want to make one for my iphone.

Anyone know where I can buy this stuff in the UK, the only place Ive found so far is Amazon and its for a big tub of the stuff plus they only have it in white.

Cheers,

Neil.

Did you know you can take your ash tray out completely and the iphone OEM cradle will squeeze perfectly inside and hold your phone and if your more slick you can dremel the back out and plug a charger in the back and run it to power and have a slick iphone holder chrager and the door will close when not in use.....

I don't know if they have them up there but I found some at target and walmart and it's great stuff but they only sell a box with six colors... Look in the crayon isle of most big stores u should find it
