How To Mount A Laptop In Your Pickup PICKUPS Accessories 31-4-34 This new seat-mounted, in-vehicle laptop stand makes using a laptop computer easier and safer in any vehicle.
The Trek Mobile Desk attaches to the passenger seat. No holes need to be drilled to install and it can be quickly moved between vehicles.
Simply loosen a bolt that holds the passenger seat to the floor, slide the Trek bracket underneath, and retighten the bolt. Glider feet in front of the base are reversed out to create compression, resulting in a stable, no-drill base mount. A telescoping pedestal supports the computer and mounts on a ball joint swivel mechanism that attaches to the base.
By loosening a knob, you can rotate the pedestal 360 degrees and angle it from zero to 90 degrees. By loosening another knob half way up the pedestal, you can adjust the pedestal up or down to adjust for the user's height. Another ball joint underneath the laptop tray can be loosened to adjust the angle of the computer. A 3/8-in. nylon strap equipped with a seat belt-type connector is used to secure the computer.
The computer sits on rubber shock pads that cushion the computer on rough roads.
"It keeps your computer secure at all times whether you're using it or not," says national sales manager Trent Slack. "It's a lot safer than keeping the computer on the passenger seat because if you have to slam on the brakes it won't fall onto the floor."
Sells for $289.95 plus S&H. Comes with a three-year warranty on parts and labor, and a 30-day money back satisfaction guarantee.
Additional bases and mounting forks are available, allowing you to use the Trek Mobile Desk in more than one vehicle. Base and fork prices range from $22.95 to $99.95.
A Back Rest buddy is available to store your files. It consists of a canvas bag that hangs in a sling that goes over the back of the passenger seat. Sells for $49.95.
