It is mounted directly to the fllor just below the console. Screwed thru the carpet to the floor pan. Be careful, don't use too long of screws though. Unfortunately once you put it there its there forever unless u get new carpet. I really like how handy it is though for seeing my phone. Nokia makes them for almost all their phones, 3360 and 5100 series i have had so far. Most cell phone providers have the pedastal and then the mount sold separately. I got mine from CellularOne.
