Want to be unique?
How about using a top of dash pod, upside down, across the top of the windshield.
Normally a radar detector is the only thing up there, but there is room for more.

Here's a question, which pods will work with the automatic seat belts? Links?
Also, how do you mount the actual pod, do you just screw into the original A-Pillar plastic?

they come with mounting instructions. usually use an interior push plug to fasten it. you have to take out the plastic that covers the a-pillar (be very careful) then drill matching holes through the pod and pillar cover.
when i drilled the pod i made the holes slightly larger than the holes in the pillar cover so that the push plug wouldn't get crushed and not fasten as well to the pillar plastic. those fins get smushed down otherwise i found.
as far as 4 pillar pods... that's ridiculous. that many and i'd start thinking of putting them in place of the center air vents, radio, or idiot cluster. maybe that's me... but if i had that much going on i wouldn't want everyone and their momma to know about it, not to mention if you didn't hook them up to the dimmer switch, you'd probably go blind.
