Product FAQ
- Can someone sit in the passenger seat while this mount is installed?
Technically, someone can still sit in the passenger seat while the RAM-VB-181-SW1 is installed. However, the mount does take up a considerable amount of legroom, making the passenger seat less comfortable. If you need to quickly remove the mount to create additional passenger space, we recommend installing the RAM-VB-REM1 Remove-A-Pole™ Base, which allows the mounting system to be removed without uninstalling the base.
- What's the difference between the RAM Mount SW1 and SW3 laptop systems?
The primary difference between the SW1 and SW3 laptop systems is the included laptop tray.
The SW1 system includes the original RAM® Tough-Tray™ (RAM-234-3), while the SW3 system includes the newer RAM® Tough-Tray™ III (RAM-234-7).
The Tough-Tray™ III offers:
A more compact footprint
Improved adjustability
An integrated cam-lock mechanism
Simplified assemblyBoth trays securely support laptops with screens up to 17 inches (measured diagonally). The RAM® Tough-Tray™ III adjusts from 10″ to 15.25″ wide, while the original RAM® Tough-Tray™ adjusts from 10″ to 16″ wide.
