So I think I'm going to relocate my iPod cable to the center cupholder, for a couple reasons:

A) I barely have anything other than a bottle of water in the car or cupholder, hell I can't even get 2 iced coffees in the front cupholder, my wife puts one in the cupholder and i use the rear for the other.

B) It would be nice to slide the cupholder cover closed when not in use, or when in use and would be nice and discreet

C) I can stop contorting myself when I have to open the armrest and plug in my phone or iPod
Based on all that you are doing, have you considered one of the aftermarket options that does it all using existing controls? It would be very clean and keep you from throwing your back out.
