Alternative Mount (VW Golf)

I bought an ex-demonstrator golf which includes what VW call the 'telephone preparation' which is an arm that is fixed from near to the glove box.

The arm is basically a mount for various phone cradles you can get for different models, but I was wondering if anyone has ever seen something that could be used to mount a Sat-Nav instead?

I know it's a long shot as it isn't what it was designed for, but as I don't use it as it is, I thought I'd try and find another use for it!

If anyone has any suggestions or knows of some third-parties that make parts for a VW telephone mount, that would be great!

Thanks Ron - I'll have a look at that and see if I can combine them with the part already in my car.

Further suggestions also welcome though......
