laptop mount in 2004 duango?

Post by sglass »

I bought a gamber john ds-132, and all the other crap to go with it.

Now reading gambers site, I see this

Installing this base into 2004-2006 Dodge Durango vehicles will compromise the vehicle airbag safety system, possibly endangering vehicle occupants. Seat bolts in 2004-2006 dodge Durango are tied into the airbag sensor system. Loosening or removal of the seat bolts in the 2004-2006 vehicles will require recalibration by a certified Daimler Chrysler service technician.

Fracking Dodge won't do it. I called a few dealers today.


Any thoughts here guys? (aside from, your shouldn't have bought a dodge)

Also seen this on a website selling Jotto-Desk products:
WARNING! DO NOT MOUNT TO 2005-2006 DODGE RAM TRUCKS
2005-2006 Dodge Ram passenger seat bolts may contain air-bag weight sensors.
This vehicle mount would require removal and replacement of seat rail bolts.
When seat rail bolts are moved, the sensors must be re-calibrated by an Authorized Dealer

We install Troy C06 consoles in quite a wide range of vehicles, thank god we don't have any Dodges. I guess it's smart to get into the habit of checking for new stuff like this every model year...
