Which iPad mount to get?
Have a roadtrip coming up next month.
So need 2 iPad mounts to connect to the front headrests.
Which ones do you guys recommend?
I don't see any reson to spend $400 on the MB mounts.
Amazon has plenty of them for around $50 each, but want one that isn't going to break first use.
What mounts are you guys using?

A gaggle of MB's
In large part it can be dependent if the iPads are "naked" (no case) or if the iPads are used in a case.
Remember the Mercedes iPad holders are for "naked" iPads - and there are two different models depdning on which generation iPad - but DO come with Mercedes 2yr accessories warranty which means replacement at the dealer over a wide range of breakage/failure.
GripDaddy has a good reputation for a naked iPad holder - you should check that out.
A bit wider selection - with many marginal reviews - on other iPad holders for either naked or cased iPads - however with so many out there I am sure your expereimentation will find something acceptable for your application.
Keep the beat !

Thanks guys. Looks like gripdaddy is the way to go.
One daughter has an iPad 1 with a case, and the other daughter has an iPad 2 without a case. So the Gripdaddy will accomodate both.
Perfect.
