This is really good advice.

It took less than 15 minutes to mount mine at the driver seat just
behind the e-brake lever.

Just used a tight bungee to secure. Yes I know. It will fly out if I'm
in an accident. --- ;^) So officially, I'll say use a better fastener
than that.

Regardless, having it close by is the best.

Cheers,

Neil.
