Lap Top Computer Stand

I am searching for a suitable lap top stand for the front of the Disco. The one that takes my eye is the USA product "Mobile Desk" Trek or Navigator. Has anyone had any experience or seen one of these fitted to a LR3?

I have a Ram mount in my D3. I bolted a mounting ball into the passenger front cup holder the ones below the radio, then bolted a supplied bracket to the drivers seat mounting bolt the one closest to the transmission tunnel. This seat bracket has a hole to accept a bendy aluminium bar. I then fixed the bendy bar direct to the laptop mounting platform.

This is what I bought Rimini Red however I only used one of the three supplied legs.

Take a look here, if you copy the picture onto your PC then open it in ‘whatever’ you should be able to zoom in or you should be able to zoom in by clicking on the picture Thumbs Up

Hijak

at the risk of a hijak here, how have you mounted that fire extinguisher, hunted round for a good way of securely mounting a while ago and gave up . . .

Bolted through the removable plastic cover at the front of the seat the one that you pull off to get to the sat nav unit. Use big washers on the back of the cover.

Thanks for the pic Andrew.

1. Do you have a pic of how the bottom leg it fixed to the seat runner??.

2. Do you need a special tool to undo the internal star looking bolt??

Regards

Bob

Oh my god - you sacrificed a cup holder?

Where do you put the joystick? Bow down

1. I will take some more detailed pictures over the weekend

2. Yes you will need a star looking wrench, most motoring/tool supplies will stock them. Thumbs Up
