Default Tablet car mount - with video!

Finally got the bugger mounted on my 94 mecury sable.

I had to tear out my center console a bit to get at some bolts. I removed the cup holder/coin holder as well as the bottom slide out container with cigarette lighter.

I purchased A ram mount for the base and a ram cradle for the tablet.

Finally got the video up! please check it out and let me know what you think!

Dude, I like that! I think I will go this route. Being able to swivel like that is cool.
GS3 + Asus TF = Bliss!

Good job, the RAM gear isn't cheap but it's quality.

So how'd the roadtrip work out? Any issues using the phone as a wifi router to update the GPS on the Tablet? I'm looking at doing a similar thing on my scooter...

Some might say distraction, I say a MUCH bigger screen to look at instead of trying to look at a small GPS screen for updates.

Thanks!

You can actually just go to the website and it will find it for you but here is the pn's:

Cradle: RAM-234-6
Mount: RAM-B-101U-C

It comes with 4 different types of clips. The ones I am using have rubber covers over them. You don't have to use them, they are optional but obviously, use them. I use two long holders for the bottom and two short on the bottom. but because the cover don't go in all the way on the short grips, I just cut them.

Works great! There is a little play but thats because I move it around a lot. But I love the GPS on it now and music. Although more of a distraction, its worth it
