Looking for ideas to mount an 11" Samsung tablet, any ideas or pictures would be helpful I've never had a tablet in any of my vehicles.

All the mounts I've used have split the tablets open and separated the screens so I'll be watching this thread for suggestions as well.
 






Never ran a tablet, but have a larger Garmin that I attached to my visor shelf, but realize that is of little value unless you want the added task of modifying a shelf unit. . .

That said, I have been satisfied with a company that makes mounting platforms for a variety of items, and they may have something to consider.

Lido Radio. My Ham mount is just a seat "wedge" - - friction fit between console and passenger seat cushion.

Several options allow you to mount radios/head units/ tablets/laptops on the seat frame instead of drilling new holes or other modifications to your rig.

Does the gooseneck seem to stay in place fairly well, I tend to bounce around a bit :)
Don’t know, don’t have that mount . . . Guessing their customer service would have some answers on the rigidity of the gooseneck.
