I bought the cheapo sirius stratus, it takes 5 minutes for the installation, and I used the air condition vent mount, just don't remember to use the aux input instead of the fm transmitter, it will give much better sound.

My XM

The mount is very rigid, but flexible.

I just ordered this last night and will post a photo if it works out:

If it doesn't work out I'll probably go with the Arkon mount that Blacksan posted.

Also, this place sells universal mounts that use 3M adhesive that can supposedly be removed without leaving residue (Last I checked they don't make a Vehicle Specific Mount for the Yaris yet):

I like the cig lighter mount. Please post some pics when you have it in and give us your thoughts on the setup.

One of the things I like about my mount is the low mounting point/angle keeps sun glare down and makes the screen readable. On my pickup there was so much glare with the receiver mounted up high on the dash it made me nuts trying to read at times.
