alternatively it can be mounted on top of the steering column or in the drivers side air vent or in the cubby hole above the head unit

mines sat on the top of the steering column, only good if you don't have any display in the middle of the instrument panel...

I would have liked mine on the pillar but I couldn't justify £60 for a pod at the time!
