hey, does anywhere know where i can buy an in-car camera mount for an evo? ideally one that's easily removable.

i use this one along with a Sparco harness bar & im very happy with it. one of the more important features to watch out for when setting up is to get a camera with good image stabilization, the mounts can only do so much.


if you check out some of my videos you'll notice the dash & car moving, but the image still appears somewhat stable, this is where the stabilization comes in

look for the suction cup design and the universal clamp mount (for rear center child seat mount)

Also sell bullet cameras and a bunch of other expensive goodies.

 

Best Buy has a tripod for $13 bucks. You take out the middle plastic hook on rear deck, undo tripod(you only use the mount itself not the tripod legs). Put it throught the hole now in the middle of rear deck(where the bolt and plastic cover were) and bolt it in. Works pretty good. If you have a harness bar you can just take some metal band clamps and clamp it to the harness bar. If you realy want to do it cheap take your camera to home depot and get a bolt that threads into the camera mount hole in bottom of camera. Get correct length, washers, and a nut and run it through that same rear deck hole. You need two people to do this. Have your friend start to thread the camera in and then you can tighten it from the trunk. My friend used this method and paid less than $2 for evrthing needed.

I've got one and it's not cheap though, works well though. Late.

 

got any video from this perspective? sounds like a great idea & im tempted to give it a try, but im concerned about the seats, occupants, helmets etc blocking the view.......

 

thanks guys.
looks like most of the better solutions involve a harness bar, which is unfortunate since i dont really want to install one of those. i'll look into the tripod idea, thanks.

 

I use a sticky pod. http://www.stickypod.com/

 

I just called my buddy and left a message to post some videos(RobEvoRS) and hopefully he'll jump in the thread and post up some vids. He's the one with the home depot solution. The seats don't realy get in the way nor do the occupants with helmets for either his way or the tripod mount way.
