Rather wide price range: $6-25.

Thanks for sharing. I plan on putting a small "tablet" (something small with a touchscreen for OBD/CAN monitoring/logging) in that spot and this clip looks like a better option than removing the cubby door. Please keep us updated about any wear and tear on the cubby door that you may encounter.
Got mine for $9.95 on Amazon. Exactly...no need to remove the cover lid and the lid still opens up with the bracket in place. Even if it does leave a little indentation mark when removed, it's still a fair trade off to be able to have a GPS in the car that almost looks like it was made for the Z.

But here's a question for you tech guys....is it okay to keep it plugged into the socket for long periods of time without the car running? Is it draining the battery? Right now I unplug it at night but leave it in during the day while I am at work.
