Arkon TAB-FSM Tablet Seat Bolt Mount

It doesn't work as a seat mount, so I flattened out the 90 degree mount to 10 degrees on an anvil with my 5# hammer. There are two places to mount under that panel also.

Until the nexus 10 has a keyboard dock option, I'm sticking with the TF700. It's a pretty nice setup.

I've also been wanting to use an Android tab to show all the readouts instead of installing actual gauges for awhile now. I finally found the perfect mount (in my opinion) and thought I'd share it here: http://www.proclipusa.com/brodit-veh...812-19052.aspx

IMO it's in the perfect position (above the glovebox) not blocking part of the windshield, hindering operation of the vehicle, or in the way of a passenger. They've also got specific mounts for each type of tablet.

There's an App called Rev http://www.devtoaster.com/products/rev/
