Neat 4th Gen mounting idea for GPS...

Anyone else notice that, with a bit of persuasion, a Garmin 26xx would probably fit in the sunglasses holder compartment by the rearview mirror? (The wife's Honda Odyssey has the same thing, must be cranked out by an OEM supplier.) You could also probably tap into the overhead lighting electrical, and mount the optional windshield-mount antennae right there at the windshield. Now, imagine if you could do all this and retain the ability to open and close the compartment, thus keeping the GPS unit out of sight when not in use...hmmm...I'm not the fabricating type, but I am tempted to run to the dealer and buy the compartment part to tinker with. Oh, I guess I'd have to buy the GPS uni, too.
