Gen5 ScanGauge in a Gen5?

Anyone using a ScanGauge in their Gen5 Camry? If so, where'd ya mount it? Any pics.

Not interested in the Blendmount for the rearview mirror; want to keep it out of sight as much as possible.

Was thinking down on the panel next to the power outlet. Could velcro it easy enough but there's no real way to make it look very clean (i.e. hiding the power/data cable). Been searching the net for some kind of flat CAT5 extension I could use to make it neater but haven't found much. Found one short cable with a 9p degree plug on the end but it will point up and that doesn't really help. I'd love to mount it and have the cable run from behind through the panel itself but I don't know if I want to go doing something so permanent as far as the interior panels go. If I could find another panel in a junkyard to keep as a backup and use if I ever got rid of the ScanGauge or sold the car, that would be ok though.

Any ideas?

I have it mounted in my Gen 6, which is very similar inside. I have mine mounted on the top of the steering column, in front of the dash panel.
