Zune Boards - View Single Post - Flush-mounting Zune into car? Anyone done it?

So, I have three Zunes...one in each color. I was recently thinking about installing one of the zunes in my car (1993 Mazda Rx-7). I use a laptop to load music onto my Zune, so updating it wouldn't be a problem. I could just "plug-in" and sync when I have my laptop in the car. Also, my car stereo has an AUX input so I can hook-up the Zune without a wireless transmitter.

Anyway, my car's interior has the PERFECT spot to flush-mount the Zune: right where the removable ash-tray is. It's just larger than the Zune, so I could probably remove the piece and bondo/sand/paint the piece so the Zune was perfectly flush-mounted.

Here's a pic of my car's interior:

I'm currently in NYC and my car is down in Florida, so I'll have to give this project a go when I get back. I think I'm going to photoshop what I'm hoping to do...so I'll post that pic when I get a min.

Thoughts? Suggestions?
