Tablet mount options for w204?

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for a solution to mount my 7 inch Samsung Tab 4 in my car.

What do you guys use?

The options I've seen with some internet research are:
- Vent clip (I have the Kenu Airframe for my phone and it works great, but they don't make one for something as large as a tablet)
- Drink holder mount
- CD slot mount
- Cigarette lighter mount in the ashtray area

I want to stay away from dash or windshield mounts as they are ugly and intrusive. It won't be mounted all the time, just for road trips.

My concern with the CD player mount is that it won't fit because of the power button, or it will press other buttons.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Proclip USA has some nice mounts available for almost any phone, tablet, etc. I have used their products for years with no issues. If you decide to make a more radical installation, then Soundman has some kits available that can be fiberglassed into installation kits and installed into the dash installation kits like I am getting ready to do with my iPad Air. I have posted some pics and links for you. There are many more options available, just Google it and search. I hope this helps.

There was a thread on here a few months back about custom mounting it in the opening for the audio system. Try putting some keywords into the search area up top of this screen.
