Where do you install your Dragy?

Hello!
Just wondering where everyone installs/places the dragy unit.
I assume somewhere on the dash for GPS reception?

I just placed an order so trying to get some ideas.

TIA!

Looked into some threads and found

- Behind the infotainment screen with velcro

Once charged I guess the dragy will operate without power hooked up?

It will, but not for long. I actually keep the cord plugged into the dragy and the usb port in the cup holder area. Some may find it too busy, but it works for me.
