Had to make fit both Acer W3 and Toshiba Encore in case so a little extra space allowed. Can still open the glove box if needed. (.025 slips in crack nicely and formed to fit contour inside).
Seems like the only place there is room without carving up the console.
Still interior is small enough for everything to be visible and ads about 300 albums, Sat-Nav, engine monitor and diagnostics, plus anything you can do with a Windows (8.1 NOT RT) box.
More functional than pretty but about an hour and a half. Notched and slid over a bit further after sat-nav pic.
Nice.. just got out to meet my son and took the TomTom out with me.. put it on the windshield and that blocked the radar detector.. not good, so just sat it in the seat. No place on the car for the suction cup to mount.. and thought "you know.. a little plate that slips over the glove box edge would give me a nice surface to suction cup that to"...
Thinking adhering the felt side of a Velcro kit to the side next to the glove box would prevent any scratching too..
