With the iPad taking over the DVD player industry, now car owners are trying to figure out how to mount iPads on the back of their seats. Kids don’t watch DVDs any more. At home, they have their movies recorded into the cable box’s DVD-R box or use Apple TV or another TV recording media. DVD’s are being used far less except for the rare blu-ray or 3-D DVD throwback that is watched.
That’s good news for drivers. Instead of worrying about installing a $2,000+ built-in DVD system, all you have to set up is a way to have your children watch the iPad. I just spent hours looking for the best iPad car seat mount. Many ranged from $10 – $20, lacking stability or flexibility. You really want to pay a little extra to ensure the iPad doesn’t fall onto your kids laps or faces. I feel that TouCoul is a company that gets it right. Most of the others came with an ugly bulky case; didn’t allow you to turn it horizontal and vertical; were flimsy; and just didn’t look pretty. TouCoul makes separate versions for iPad 1 support, iPad 2 support, but not for iPad 3 support. So, they all fit like a glove. For about $60, you’re getting a well-made clamp that looks like it’s been built into your car.
The original iPad supported product is named CV1000 and the iPad 2 service holder is called the CV1002. For some reason, Toucoul doesn’t provide new iPad support yet so I recommend going with the Gripdaddy v2ARM iPad Mount. It goes for $60 as well as is a step above the other headrest iPad mounts.
Now, you’re ready to install your high-end iPad car seat mounts!
