Overview

The RAM® Universal Drill-Down Vehicle Laptop Mount (RAM-VBD-101-SW3) installs quickly and easily into most vehicles using self-tapping screws or by drilling and bolting the mount base to the vehicle. This laptop mounting system features a telescoping design with upper and lower poles, allowing users to adjust the mount to their desired height with the simple turn of a knob. Dual swing arms provide articulation and 12” of reach for passenger and driver access to the mounted device. RAM® rubber ball and socket technology provides additional adjustability as well as shock and vibration isolation. The spring-loaded RAM® Tough-Tray™ laptop holder accommodates laptops ranging from 10” to 17” (measured diagonally). The tray features four adjustable retaining arms with rubber grips that can be moved both vertically and horizontally. These arms allow for a custom fit for laptops of varying thicknesses while keeping ports and drives accessible. Compatible accessories, including a screen support and USB light, are also available to enhance your mounting setup.

Reading part numbers

The letter after RAM tells you the ball size: RAM-B-166 uses a 1" B ball, while RAM-D-201 uses a 2.25" D ball. C size parts are the exception and carry no letter, so RAM-201U is a C size arm.
