Default iPod holders

Does any one have a custom iPod holder in there truck? I am thinking about building something where the tape deck is and I was just looking for some ideas and input. If you have any pics please post up.

Thanks

Aftermarket decks with ipod support are like 100 bucks now, it's be 10x easier then trying to mod up a stock radio.
