Default plug and play sat. recievers

i have had a dedicated alpine tuner in my car for about 2 years, and i finally decided to ditch it for a plug and play reciever (so i can take back and forth between my cars)

where did you guys mount yours? I am looking for some suggestions, post up some pics

I put one of those button-slot mounts designed for cell phones on the bezel around the radio. My Sirius Starmate has one of those buttons on the back of the mount so I can just slide it into position next to the radio and lift it out when I move it to the bike.

Head unit is a Jensen/Audiovox Special Performance Series cassette/CD unit that is designed to look like factory equipment (theft avoidance). It allows me to use a cassette adapter for the satellite radio for better sound than with FM modulation (you can see the wire from the adapter coming out of the cassette slot). The satellite radio is merely slipped into the cell phone button mount that I attached to the trim bezel. The button mount is available for under $10.
