Hi guys made a bracket today to mount my ipad in the car and used part of my old mounting system made by proclip.

  which i use for sat nav the tomtom is great for £59.00 pounds and i have it on two iphones as well for the same money  .

as you can see the ipad main mounting is removeble

 what do you think guys?

That would been illegal  the mounting bracket turns so the boy can play or watch flims

will get some more photos with the ipad in place later if i get a chance.

Thanks bear.

I can imagine that being not at all distracting at night (or even day for that matter). 

Suddenly that womans idea of decanting fuel at home doesnt seem such a bad idea!

Me thinks that you'll find yourself having a none too friendly chat with Mr Plod before too long

Best make sure that the holder is empty the instant you have a prang, else you'll be bent right over ready for the consequences

Agree.

Its just asking for trouble. Either in the way of a crash or insurance or police issues. Seems to me a daft idea to locate a 10 inch screen right under your nose as you drive along. Surely a iphone is enough as a sat nav tool.

I get distracted (by the light) if my son watches a movie on the ipad whilst in his car seat in the rear. I cannot imagine how distracting this will be. Its also not unusual for the police or insurers to check car forums immediately after a crash to ascertain mods to a car, especially if the accident involves a fatality.

I wish you all the best, but to me it seems silly to locate an ipad there and sillier still to post it on a forum for all to see. Worse still, your reg no is there to link it to you (god forbid) in the event of the above happening.

Have the pictures been removed, as I can't see them?

It appears the OP is no longer a member Dave

[blackviper90210]

Well spotted Rob    Guess I'll just go stand back in the corner

[dbug]

Think he may have taken the hump over criticism 

[doz]

Aye. It was a little bit uncalled for

[05omegav6]

Not sure that anything that out of order was said

Petrol incidents notwithstanding, people have been far ruder. Hopefully he's deleted the pics and will be back with a new account having realised the implications of what he'd posted

[Proz]

Everyone has there own ideas and i had a look a few days ago at the pics .... but not for me

Not seen the pictures, where was it mounted?

Kinda makes sense if you have kids in the back & you already own an iPad, pop a film on for them to keep them busy. Much like DVD head rests. Be ok if its mounted behind your field of vision, near the arm rest looking back?

Unless it was mounted in the front? Can't access the pictures
