iPad / tablet holder

I recently stumbled upon this video: http://www.volvolifepaint.com/imageweb/17319667-adfd-4ddf-8e14-46b68eef8590.mp4

It is part of the S90 accessories list on this page:
http://www.volvolifepaint.com/us/buy/shopping-tools/build-your-volvo#/accessories/234/

Although it is the S90 accessories list, the car in the video is clearly an XC90.

If I compare the iPad / tablet holder in this video I notice some differences with the one on the XC90 accessories page here:
http://www.volvolifepaint.com/en-us/XC90(16-)/Accessories/Document/VCC-483577/2016


The main differences are:
- The holder in the video allows you to easily insert/remove the tablet
- The holder in the video allows you to pull down the holder so it is more suitable for small children

Is this new (?) holder also available for the XC90 and what part number does it have?

Hi Yannis,

That's the exact same one as I was linking to but doesn't seem to be the same one as in the video, like I said:

- The holder in the video allows you to easily insert/remove the tablet
- The holder in the video allows you to pull down the holder so it is more suitable for small children


The holder you are linking to forces you to insert the iPad inside an outer shell and makes it much harder to remove it. Hence the need for a screen protector to prevent it from scratching. It also, as far as I can see on the accessory page, doesn't allow you to pull it down like in the video.


So these seem to be 2 different accessories.

Dear Volvo,

Can you please confirm that the accessory in the video is different from the one on the accessories page? And if possible confirm if the one in the video will ever be on the market, or that is was an early prototype that didn't make it because of safety reasons or whatever.

Regards,

Peter
