SCT touchscreen mounting options??

Has anyone tried to or know of a way to mount a SCT touchscreen tuner in the "mini-glovebox" (the storage comp just below the aux switches and trailer brake). I saw that there was a company making these types of mounts for the 6.4s that replaces the fold down cup holders. But havent found anything on the 6.0s yet. Let me know. I may just try to custom make one.

I thought that maybe a nice cutout on the bezel to the right side of the steering column would look nice if planned nicely. Not sure if its enough space though...

I used the mini glovebox to mount my Sirius radio. Screwed the mounting bracket to the top of the mini glovebox, drilled a small hole in the back of the mini for wires. Not a perfect fit but better than the factory options and the wires are hidden. Would not know why it wouldn't work for the CTS. I have the same one, but am currently using the windshield mount. Not crazy about edges dash mount, looks like they cobbed a bracket to mount to the CT dash mount.

I have my CTS in the drivers glove box. I brought the wire in from the back. The wire is zip tied and the CTS just sits on the wire. Fits perfectly, and when closed can't be seen. It is easy to see while driving. Can post pics if needed. Let me know.

It is just sitting on the cord. I have the cord zip tied, so the cord holds it in place. It does not slide back and forth. It is surprisingly stable.
