Too bad this doesn’t make Ford’s run better (cheapshot I know). In any case I am still waiting for a mp3 player installed by default with wireless access allowing to zip my new mp3s over to it while the car sits in the garage. But this is almost as good.

I used the center console of my car to sculpt an add-on piece that would house the iPod mini and connect it to my existing car stereo. I took a mold of the final sculpture using L-200 latex and backed it with an Ultracal 30 plaster shell to hold its shape. I then cast the piece using dental acrylic. Using the Belkin car charger, I connected it to the iPod mini and placed the iPod into the acrylic piece at the angle I wanted, then flipped the whole piece over and poured another layer of dental acrylic over the protruding edge of the iPod mini and the car charger, creating a perfectly snug fit for the iPod to rest into and connect to the charger.

Thanks for the link Derek
