Where would you put a DAB doofer?

Folks,

Recently acquired a DAB/Bluetooth doofer. It’s excellent, just need an aux output now as sound quality over FM transmitter isn’t great.

Slightly worried about current position looking like a sat nav and ending up in a smashed window.

Where do you have yours?

Anyone?

One of these. DAB receiver and Bluetooth adapter with aux/FM transmitter output

Do you use the cupholder thing to the left of the standard stereo?

Oh yes, that’s essential kit

Can you use a Bluetooth speaker with it?

Nope, FM or aux out.

I'm trying to remember what my '04 V70 looked like inside...

I think there's a small area above the right-hand middle air vent, if that makes sense. Nextto the hazard switch. Otherwise, depending on what options you've got fitted, and what switches are already in place, is there room in front of the gear lever?

Thanks, that’s the only other space I can think of, but I think once on the mount it’ll get in the way of the indicator a bit. And I’m not convinced it’ll stick to that bit of dash!

Again with mount, not much room by gear lever!

TBH I have not heard of non-integrated sat nav stealing for a while

Me neither, until we had a little spate around here!

Is the mount necessary?

Kind of, the self adhesive one is lower profile but it fixes with the clips on the back of the unit.
TBH it’s current location works fairly well and is neat with wiring etc. I’ve also worked out the dimmer settings for night driving. Only faff is running a long aux lead.

Just concerned about tea leaves, although I can still remove it, when it’s in a LHR hotel car park for 2 weeks soon I’ll do that!
