Cup Holder Mount....?

Ok I have searched over and over and I cannot find a good post on a cup holder-mounted screen. I just got a 2005 Grand Prix and my dad wont let me hack into the dash quite yet, so, until I can, I noticed that if there was a mount that had a base in the cupholder that could attach to the back of a screen, xenarc, lilli, whatever. I can rig something to work with the back of the screen, its the cup holder base and arm that I'm having problems with.
I've looked at the goose neck option, but it just looks too big and unstable, I just need something short, from the cup holder that is somewhat adjustable. I'm definately new to this, so any feedback, just a link, would be great.

you could probably make a bracket yourself. The other option is to get an indash mounted housing that will go into the slot where the stereo lives. Like this.

well, i dont really know about a cup holder mount

the screens arent that light, so any sharp turn might make it fall outta the cup holder

perhaps you should look into getting spare bezel like i did.. and store the stock one for when you need to trade/sell vehicle... thats what im doing so that i can make mistakes

Thanks for the replies!

About how much do the screens weigh? Some of the websites say about 1.2 pounds at the most. I'm thinking if I anchor the base of a gps or satellite cupholder mount from ebay that it will hold. Tell me if you think it will be too heavy...
