I used this RAM Mount "universal" laptop stand in my chase vehicles from about 2008-15, then switched to a tablet, and haven't had any use for it since. I finally decided it was time to clear it out of the closet while doing some spring cleaning yesterday. I would've just dropped this off at Goodwill if not for the fact that it might be so useful to another chaser, so I decided to offer it up grabs here (other than any shipping costs).

There are three main components:
- Tray (RPR-258H; I believe it has been replaced by RAM-234-3): spring-loaded and should fit all but the largest laptops. Includes a ~1.5" diameter ball joint attached to the bottom for mounting into various RAM Mount products.
- Stand: About 14" tall with two swivel points and a clamp for the tray's ball joint. This part is really great, as long as you have a way of mounting it to something sturdy in the vehicle.
- Passenger seat mount base: this is the self-proclaimed "universal" part of the package, but beware--it will take some work (and possibly even modifications) to make it fit cleanly into many vehicles. I had a Civic when I first bought this package from a third-party reseller, who made some custom brackets (also pictured and available if you want them) to match the angle of my seat bolts--the brackets then attached into the base with a second set of bolts. It was an inelegant setup that was only 80% sturdy, but I got by. FWIW, I measured the two seat bolt holes on the base at about 16.75" apart.
