Uniden Police scanner - Boxster 2002

Hi
I am looking into buying a police scanner. I have a great radar detector but i feel that a police scanner could add to the "no ticket" factor...

Uniden seems to have a lot of different scanners. Basically you choose from portable scanners or base versions. I was looking for a more permanent solution like a base scanner f.e http://www.xtremedeal4u.zoovy.com/product/BCT8/Uniden_BCT8_Police_Scanner_TrunkTracker_IIIBCT8_Po lice_Scanner.html
Now, here is the question. I was thinking of building this into my porsche boxster 2002. Removing the CD storage (which i never use), does anyone have experience building scanners or ham radio type equipement into a porsche ?
From a dimension standpoint this would work great : opening in porsche is 7.28" width X 2.36 " high. The scanner's dimensions are slightly smaller.
i wanted to create a clean build-in : f.e power : use permanent power DC connection to the fuse box and grounding to body.

Anyone done this before or am i the only fast driver on the block?

Thanks for your input !
