Maybe if enough of us inquire about this they might make a custom dock for our cars and maybe even have a group buy price for us. Check it out, would turn our useless ashtrays to something better.

The plan is for me to send them back my ashtray insert and the dock parts and cable they sent me for them to create the mold for the insert. The part I have to measure is the angle for the iPhone/iPod to make sure it will fit at a slight angle and not lay against the console/dash. So far it does. The thing that might be tight is the fat 120gb iPod as it is much thicker and probably will want to touch the console.

I am currently waiting on a new cable as the first one they sent caused my Vais to have a lot of static/feedback that isn't there without their cable. It really isn't their fault either as the cable was from another manufacturer and was still in it's original package. They had not tried their cables (either manufacturer) with a Vais unit yet so I wanted to make sure the video will continue to work before we went any farther.
