I don't have pictures at the moment but I put mine inside that small compartment that flips up and down right below the clock and above the radio/ac (05 g35 coupe). I put velcro on the back of the gps and on the inside of the compartment door so when I need to use the gps I just flip it open and there it is. I'll try and take some pics later today.

I have my TomTom mounted to the cubby lid. It looks great in there. I pulled power from the cigarette lighter. Just tapped on with an extra 12V car outlet, plugged in a charger for the TomTom, and routed that wire up the side of the center console (you have to remove that plastic trim on the console near the driver's knee). The only problem I ran into is I had to cut a small notch into the cubby, near the lid hinge, so the power wire won't be in the way of the lid operating. Looks stock when closed, and very clean when open. Hope this helps... Sorry no pics.

I use the Garmin dash friction/beanbag mount and put the Nuvi in front of the clock. It stays up there pretty well.
