Default Ideas for mounting Toshiba gigabeat

I have a toshiba gigabeat ( about 3 inches by 1.5") Mp3 Player. Right now it is connected to my hu through a front panel aux in connectin and to a power source through the lighter connection in the glovebox.

The player sits in the cupholder.

It is very inconvenient and not at all elegant with my arm brushing against it when I shift.

I need a way to mount the mp3 player to my dash and power it without wires running across my car.

Any ideas, especially good ones, appreciated.

I would use that phone mount that attaches to the right hand side of the radio mount, which gives you a nice mount angled towards you on the right side of the shifter. Then you can just run the wires down below the center console. Only about 2 inches of cables show, and if your cables are black, no one will notice it. I think I bought the mount for liek $30. Someone on here had a pic of it, that's how I found it. I'll try to take a pic of it when I get the car back.

Here you go - Panavise mount for the S2000. (The round thing on it is part of the Dension Icelink)
