PD not going to laptops until first of the year. Need to install MW520 to get unit on the street until then.

Any suggestions welcome.

What brand console are you going to use? I have seen some people use Jotto, Havis and I think Troy just came out with some mounts. There are some pics over on elightbars.

You may want to try Lund Industries as well, they are in Chicagoland.

One of my co-workers started the thread on the other site.

We are trying not to use a console to allow more space. All the consoles solutions seem to place the keyboard low over the equipment making it hard to operate(the equipment) or raise the screen to far above the dash. Even though it is for a short time, I want to give them a safe, easy to use config. The current stand, if bolted to floor plate is either to high or when adjusted has the keyboard to low. I guess were just caught in the trap of knowing what we want to accomplish while not laying out any cash for such a short period. I'm begining to think we should try to hold them back till laptop deployment.
When we roll out laptop, we will use CF29/30 on L&E docks on top of LEDCO vehicle specific mounts. Lights and siren controlled by smart siren and dash mount Spectra digital 800. I will try to send pics of current CV install and the SO laptop install.
Thanks for the suggestions - keep them comming.
