Here's one option.  I followed someone else's invention
and made a strudy platform that bolts to the table leg
behind the driver's seat.  the TV is then affixed
securely with double bungie cords.  I also put screws
in the wood platform (with the heads protruding 1/4" or
so) to make it so the TV cannot slide on the platform.

You have to be very careful.  If the TV became
dislodged in an accident, it could act as a missle and
seriously injure or kill someone.  It can be done
safely, you just have to do it right.  Ours is very
solid.
