With the Nano i don't even bother thinking about mounting it. I just use the monster cable charger/fm modulator. It perfect for the stock location of the cig lighter. The unit that plugs in is really low profile. Its like an inch taller than the cig lighter. So it doesn't bother me with shifting. Then i put the nano in the pocket under the stereo. Maybe i'm just not bothered by reaching for the pod when i want to.. =) just a thought
