Got any creative IPOD mounts or places where ur plugs sit?

I'm getting the Ipod adapter as well as the Nav 2 Video adpater so i will have a 2 or more wires coming from the dash and I would like to figure out a creative way to hide them and only be seen when in use.
I thought about a pull and retract type wire but I don't even know if they make something like that from Apple...

Anyone here have a creative way to hide the AUX input cables?
Pics would be most appreicated.

Yea same with the center console. I cut a little notch under the 12v plug so there would be no visible holes in case I decide to remove it later.

Instead of cutting a hole under the 12v outlet, you can remove it from the tray and plug your mp3 player/phone/whatever you use most into it and let it sit in the dead space under the rest of the center console. Run the power wires and the AUX connectors through a grommet in the hole that the 12v outlet sat.

Completely reversible and you don't have the power adapter sticking out of the outlet taking up space inside.
