Did some interior modifications to make my controller sit like it belonged in the car. Took the wood trim on the center console out. the controller looked right at home behind the shifter plate. There were no clearance issues etc under it so taped the wood trim up, drew an outline of the controller and started cutting real slow. After everything was cut out, I taped up the controller, sprayed some wd40 on it and created a base with fiberglass and tiger hair.. looked pretty good.

Painted the holder black for a more oem look.

Everything looked good I drilled a hole for the micro usb plug to come through the base to plug into the controller and then realized that the controller might rattle in the holder and that would drive me crazy. Got some felt liner tape and lined the bottom and sides with it. Controller fits like a glove and is fully removable and no cracks on the wood trim!!!! Very happy with this mod.
