I just bought a right angle USB Type B cable, so it should minimize the cable being jostled loosely. In fact, you can't fit a straight USB Type B because the A/C vent would interfere.

I think my ideal set up have to be able to easily remove the tablet for updating, or modifying the set up. A company is/was selling a float mount kit that holds the tablet in place using magnets. These were super expensive if I remember right...pay to play i suppose. I think I'd sacrifice some flexibility to get a better price point.

Here's a link to a video of the float mount kit. I believe the one for the Nexus 7 is discontinued, but offered for Ipad mini and air.

I used to have a 2013 Nexus 7, but it broke, so I got the Tab S2 8". The USB is connected to the cigarette lighter in the passenger well, so you could still connect it to a laptop or Tablet PC to incorporate any updates to it. I did that after I put in my SD card. I wanted to add more files, so I just plugged in through there.

if not, then you'd have to remove the whole dash unit like normal because this clam-shell design is screwed into the same mounting screws as the A/C vents.
