Hi bill,
I haven't installed a dension gateway 300 but i think mkoneman has with good results! It's the one i'd go for having reviewed what's on the market. It allows you to control your ipod from the audi headunit which is ideal IRRC
The downside of the dension 300 is that you have to disconnect the cd changer but in return you get a piece of kit that allows you to play digital music, charge your ipod/iphone/itouch, control it on the screen, etc. The dension 500 is one step up and allows you to keep your cd changer.
As for location, i was quite picky in that i wanted it within driver's reach so i can change the song. I have mine under the armrests as it's a useless cubbyhole for me anyway but i've seen others mount it on the phone cradle after having removed the phone, in the cigarette tray, on a vent-mount, or on a non-OEM phone cradle....it's completely up to you.
