Pro-Clip has a nice Sprinter specific mount and MP3/iPod/cell phone/PDA holders http://www.proclipusa.com/default.asp
On my iPod mounting I used thier VSM and iPod clip and a Belkin iPod power adapter and a Radio Shack 1/8 pin to RCA cable. I plugged the Radio Shack cable into the back of the Clarion radio thats in the Winne and ran it to the Belkin adapter. I plugged a 12 volt extension cord to the belkin adapter and hot wired it to the radio power with a wire tap and ran the ground to the ground block by the battery. I then ran the 30 pin connecter from the Belkin power supply to the Pro-Clip. I bundled all the wires up and zip tied them together and stuffed them behind the center console. So now all you see is one wire coming from the power supply and the iPod is within easy reach.
