Laptop mount?

Alright, before I get the red-butt for not searching, I did. and to my dismay, I couldn't find what I am looking for, so I will ask.

I know some people have laptops and/or 'mp3-machines' hooked up into their car. I have a laptop and it's hooked up to my sound system, my question is, where is a good place to mount that thing? Like, is there a stow-away bar I could have made to have it come out of the glove box and lock out (and in) or something? I want it to look good, but also not dedicated to my car, since I use it for school.

I use it for mp3s and DVDs in my car...hehe...just wished I could find a good support bracket that looks good.


Any help would be appreciated

Thanks!

Yeah that helps for the power adapter, I am looking for an actual mount though, so it's not 'floating' around my car, you know?

It's not hooked up through my headunit, it's hooked up to my amps...

but if you have an input on your headunit, just run a Y cable from the headphone jack to the RCA input, and you're set.

I'm still playing around with it. Hopefully it'll be in by the June 9 meet in New Jersey
