I was thinking of putting a mount in mine too. I had one in one of my previous cars that worked pretty well. I will see if I can find it again for ya.

Just out of curiosity, what are you doing to keep the laptop powered when it's in the vehicle?

When I had one in my car I just bought a cheap power inverter that plugged into the cigarette lighter and it worked fine.

I can't remember where I saw this but someone utilized their glovebox and made a laptop sliding tray to go in and out of the glovebox. Then you could hide the laptop when you weren' using it.

That's really nifty! I sometimes use my laptop in my car, my wireless card is so weak though. It struggles to get a good signal in the parking lot hot spots. I think something in my vehicle interferes with the signal, because the signal improves when I step out of the vehicle.
What do you guys use for wireless cards and antenna?

Just for laughs, the instant I saw that ebay mount, I thought of making the laptop background display that "DANGER TO MANIFOLD" screen like in F&F.
