99 4Runner iPad mount

[red87]

Hey all,

I just snagged an iPad that I plan to use for GPS/navigation in my 4Runner. I've got the software all figured out so now the question is how to mount it. I'm looking at the proclip dash mount and combining that with a ram mount. I'm concerned that much leverage will cause issues with the mount or my dash. Does anyone have experience with this sort of setup?

I use this Panavise mount and the RAM mount your looking at. Just did this set up over the holiday and used it for a road trip the beginning of the month. Has some vibration but other wise work great!

I have the RAM , it's solid , keep the arm short.

v-man, did you add some sort of stabilizers to the back of the RAM Ipad mount?

 

[v_man]

yes, u can see the springs I added there on the top pic . 2 on the cradle , and 2 from the cradle to the dashboard , just to firm everything up even more.

How much vibration are we talking about? Like enough to make the device impossible to read off-road?

my truck came with the RAM... wish I had an iPad to use with it. lol

Full size iPad or mini? I run an 8" windows tablet on a rig connected to a GoPro sticky mount next t my stereo. Runs great, but probably not robust enough for a full sized iPad. Can provide more details if you're interested.
