Great Help, thanks

Yep - glove box gets my vote.

Wiring is easy. Access is easy. Security is good.

What more can I say?

James,
Glove box is good, I have a 10 CD auto changer behind the passenger seat though, mounted upright.

Be very careful if you take this route, the fuel tank is there, but it can be done.

Buy an MP3 player/radio to replace your audio system. As you can get 10 audio CDs on one MP3 you don't need a changer, and you get to keep your glove box for your gloves!

Put it in the boot !

I put mine in the boot and once fitted with the 6 CD's you never have to worry again. It leaves the space in the glove box free.

I just rand the wires round the side of the boot to the back of the passenger chair, removing the rubber plug. Then down the side behind the carpet along under the passenger chair and up behind the radio.

It works brilliantly, and I can still put cd's, gloves, maps, etc etc in the glove box.

I mounted it on the back panel of the boot. I had to drill some small holes through and used self tappers.

Be careful though don't wnat the drill to slip too far through the hole when you drill as can damage vital pipes, wires etc, but very easy to see and mak on the boot side then check where hole will emerge.
