You could just mount it in the hatch area to the side. The only other places I can think of would be, the spare tire compartment, the jack compartment, or the glove box.

on my car the pc680 is sitting on the torque tunnel, it's going to stay there, theres a flat land on it that it fits perfectly on, inline with the bolts the center console/dash used to mount to which i'll probably use for straps to hold it in place...



but you probably still have the dash and all that stuff.
