Thread: laptop in d1

I use a ram mount to support my laptop in a 98 disco. I don't put it on the dash though.

The base of the ram mount is positioned above the centre console, on the left side, and in a line between the gear and hi/low levers.

The keyboard goes above the gear lever and I have it rotated a bit toward the driver.

I don't normally have passengers, but it would not prevent passengers, and if they were navigating, it could be turned to the passenger.

I've been through many days of rough conditions without any issues with the mount. I haven't had any issues with the laptop either, but you would expect that with a toughbook.

laptop? why don't you guys just hand write the shopping list

Ask stikman, i think he has his mounted on the dash (old stile dash)

If you still need to get a notebook to put into the disco Mick, you might be interested in this

It is a compact sized notebook that looks like it would be a good size for vehicle mounting and is $498.

However it is only available for the next 24 hours.

Mine was just a temp install for the Coffs trip but yeah, had it strapped to the grab rail running through a touch screen mounted on the dash between the instruments and grab rail. Removing the grab rail and fixing it properly would probably work OK but i dont really like the heat and direct sunlight of being on the dash.
