As you all know, the vRS seats have no adjustable headrests therefore nowhere to mount the traditional tablet holder for the kids in the rear.

 

Has anyone got a good solution to this problem? Ideally I would like to mount the tablet in the middle of the rear seats as well. 

 

TIA.

One of my ‘off in the future’ mods is to try and install the Superb cup holder with the tablet mount in it. Now you’ve bought it up I’ll have to check eBay lol.

We just use a piece of string wrapped around the seat and have a fold over case on the tablet.  Job done.

 

I tried a couple of suction mount ones for the side windows, and a clamping one from the seat rail, but they'd all fall down or sag after a few minutes. Settled on the cheapo way with string and that's been going strong for the last 3 years no problems. If you want one screen between two in the back, I use a longer piece of string between the 2 head rests. Although that does swing a bit if you're not on a motorway / perfect road. 

 

lol, brilliant! ^^^

 

Does it stay still enough to keep watching George Pig? I thought it may sway a little if not anchored more than that, which has the potential to make the kids feel sick (never a good idea! especially without leather (wipe-clean) seats!!!!). 

Well my daughter had it on for about 3 hours the other day from Birmingham to Porthcawl for half term and was fine lol.

 

She got a bit travel sick on the way home, but that was probably because she was holding it instead that time. Nothing a nap didn't sort out!

Appreciate the replies. String makes sense! 

 

Seen the generic cup holder mounts, I wonder if one could be used in the rear centre armrest and attempt to move the bracket forward so both kids could see the screen.

Where do you fit the Superb cup holder? 

It replaces the cup holder in the armrest. If you have the cup holder that sits longitudinally in the armrest it’s no help, but if you have the transverse one then it could be a workable thing. Having a cupholder mount for a tablet would probably do if you aren’t as extra as me with the modding lol. 

I was able to mount an iPad using this

will the string/bailer twine not rub the PU off the seat rests eventually?

I'd imagine so eventually. However its only goes on for occasional holiday use and only putting on when needed, so over the last 4 years nothing yet.

+1 for this. Stays on, barely noticeable to the person using the seat. Holds an iPad well. 1 tablet, 2 children watching 

My daughter will get a comic, and then bored - same as me in the 80's

So. Went with the cheap option (obv... I do drive a Skoda). Worked really well on the first part of our night journey down to the tunnel. Then to Villages Nature near Disneyland Paris. 

 

Car performed even better. Its an absolute pleasure to drive. 

 

 

is it just wedged between the seats?

I've got an Amazon DVD/MP4 player gizmo and the holder for it has two horizontal straps, I just connected the straps in an X shape and hooked over the top of seat; works fine.
