    I'll start with the pictures...

    I've owned a Rio Karma for a while now and I've recently decided that I never use the dock at home so I might as well put it in my car.

    The entire thing is made out of Sculpey-brand oven-bake clay stuff (its a cheaper version of FIMO). It took about ten minutes to shape it, two hours to bake, and another ten minutes to glue the dock on (5min epoxy).

    I was originally going to make it in all-black but decided that was too plain. Overall, I'm very satisfied and its easy to use/navigate while driving. The only thing that would make it better would be an audio-input directly into the stereo (instead of the tape adapter).

    Its not shown in the picture, but I have a cigarette power adapter for it...
