iPad Mini headrest mounts

Post by UrbanFlow » Mon Dec 15, 2014 5:15 pm

Hi all,

I'm looking to purchase a couple of iPad mini headrest mounts so the kids can watch films in the back.
There's plenty on Amazon etc - but wondered if anyone could recommend any good ones?
Or even steer me away from the crap ones!

Thanks,

UF

To be honest, personally, I'd go for the BMW Travel & Comfort System iPad holders.

It can double up as a coat hanger or a shopping bag holder when you don't need to use it as an iPad holder.

Does it now do the ipad 'Mini' holder cause it did not used to, and also only covered certain years of the iPad models?

Snugg make ones that go around the head rest supports.
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

I'm not really sure to be honest, I don't have this myself (I have no wife nor children, so I don't need the shopping bag holder nor the iPad holders, respectively!). I suppose one could check with the local BMW dealer?

I have this for iPad mini in ours:

It's not fancy but very simple to fit and of course you can quickly access it if you need to change what's playing or hide it away when parked in public. I bought off eBay but they were delivered via Amazon so not sure if they might be cheaper on there.
