got mine from ebay.45-55 bucks with a quick disconnect. it's mostly straight piping and a couple of bent piping, a black plastic tube cover to make it look smooth when it's actually piping, the top is a plastic piece with a 90* lip, a velcro strap, and mounting hardware. mounting surface to the car is a circular piece with 4 holes. i had to cut my bottom mounting piece up to get it to bolt into my camaro. not very sturdy mounting it with 1 seat bolt.

if you have time to get the parts yourself, i can post some pics of the actual parts. i ended up using some piping i had and not using some from the kit to make it sit where i wanted it to be. if i had the time, i'd make a custom one.
if you don't have time, just buy the one from ebay with a quick disconnect.
not many passengers are going to be comfortable with it in place.

the afterthoughts one is the first one i bought... (it's a jottodesk)

Very well designed, full adjustable, no modifications needed. Uses straps to hold the laptop down so you can close the lid fully, also you can get an optional piece that holds the laptop display so it doesn't flap all over

The RAM desk I bought a few years later is even more robust (designed for police use), but only bad thing is you can't lower the laptop display all the way

Jotto here, it's the f-bod one IIRC. Works great and swings towards dash so passanger can still ride along with out removing.
