Well I've got my Ipad air loaded with All the Hema Maps but have been trying too work out where too mount it in the troll. So I have started making a steel mount bolted too the passenger side seat bolts.. Will update thread once Ipad holder arrives this week.
Will be using a Ram Mount for the setup and Ram Tab-Tite Ipad Air holder :thumbup:

I've mounted mine the same way Stropp has by the sounds of it, plenty of pics here http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/showthread.php?28210-Rockets-Wagon&p=511564&posted=1#post511564 (bottom of first page).

Yer being a Series 2 I don't have that handy little pocket :( I want it too be pretty solid which is why I'm using a solid steel mount from the seat..
Bracket welded up and waiting for the Ram mounts too finish working out lengths

Interested to see what you go mate. I just got mine going again the car with the old suction cap and it certainly does suck...lol

That's what I use and it's great... Did not fall off once on the Simpson trip

I’ve thought about ipad mounts a number of times but the reality is that space is at such a premium in the cab of my ute mouting it anywhere is not a very practical proposition. Seems the most obvious solution is for my wife to hold it! :)

Well all finished, got my Ram mounts today so finished the mount all up.. Will paint it a different colour too better match the interior.
Almost no movement in the mount at all

Looks the goods. No wobbles on that unit I'm sure. I hate the windscreen/dash mounted options as they vibrate too much sometimes.
