Thanks.

Now, wouldn't you know it, there's a need for the climate controlled console compartment and they took it away!
You may can put it on the left side outter part in the glove compartment or into the glove compartment, it doesn't make much heat

Yeah but I'm not in the mood to run a USB cable from there back to the console. Some of us don't usually rip our cars apart once a week Nick!

2 months now, I didn't touch anything.

Ok, you can drop it into the seat envelope cases (front seats back)

Don't you think it'll fit in the console (like where they expect you to put the iPod?)
