Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Well I wouldn't exactly call it nice but it is functional thanks Jeff.... Went to the Dollar store and found a cheap Ipod video case that I just screwed onto the dash plate using one of the screws holding the dash plate on. I located it just under the radio and have a very short cord attaching aux input on the front to the Ipod itself. I'll try and post a picture or two when I get home.

I know Jimsport93 uses his Ipad as his music source on his 93 and keeps it beside the drivers seat and uses a long cord. Thank goodness the sound system is up to date unlike the music coming out of it. He and Robin have been known to start "Shagging" to it when we raft up out in some cove somewhere!

We've been headless for 4 or 5 years now and just put the iPod in a silicon sleeve and it sits beside the dash in front of the throttle. It sticks to the gelcoat well and gets splash protection from the windshield.

I always use Velcro. bunch of different colors now so doesn't look bad.Best place I've found for cell phone while boating is in car console.

I have a 1993 SN w/ open bow. Got a big sound system upgrade recently - with advice from some of you (thanks again btw). My new head unit is in the same location at the old..in the glove box. Its Bluetooth and I want to use my phone for controls. Only problem is I need a good way to mount it near drivers seat. I looked at suction cup windshield mounts to mount to that side glass piece but they make me nervous that it may come loose and fall in the water. Any inventive way to mount a cell phone holder you guys have come up with? If suction cup is the way to go...any brands or models you've found work good? Thanks in advance for any advice or photos on this.
