Ok, this is my first shots of the camera mount.....few things i need to say first....
1.This is not a finished product, i bought this off a guy selling them/it on ebay which lived right down the road from me.
He is just testing these to see if anyone would like one themself, so this unit is a test unit kinda.
2.To be honest, to be a test unit it's honestly pretty damn nice/solid.
I made a few mins of video tape but i ran out of tape so if anyone wants to see how well it does you'll have to give me a few days/week.
3.The guy selling these(Rob) has a few different camera mounts he's playing around with and the one he's testing now is very kick ass to say the least imo.
I can see a few things i'd like to change but overall very close to perfect imo.
You can also pretty much mount 4 cameras at 1 time and he tested this unit last year himself, he races course tracks(no 1/4 racing) with his 03.
The test mount is very stable(Rob you was correct on this, not much movement at all).
So if anyone does need a piece like this that doesn't cost an arm and leg please let me/Rob know and pass the word around.
4.Why add 150-300lbs of weight by needing your buddies fat ass holding the cam when you can have a nice 2lb guy doing it for you?
Btw i had not problem with it being in my way(like hitting my head against it)
Last thing, this is a "test" unit and can be made how you like i do believe(correct me if i'm wrong on this Rob).
Not even sure i have it mount correct but either way it's mounted, seems to be just fine.

i have 1 small video i made very quick.
I havn't played around with it much and it can be adjusted very easy.
The guy who is making them has another mount that doesn't use the "arm?" to move the cam around and this should make it even easier to adjust.
If anyone has any ideas on making it better just reply and he'll see it and do his best to make it for you.
As of now he's only made this for the 99-up cobras/stangs but is trying to fine out if the sn95's have the same seats.
Here is 2 pics of the cam mounted in my car...remember i didn't test all the angles, just 1, i moved the cam so i could see my speed(yes i know the rpm is blocked but i think i can adjust it to were i can see if if need be but i kinda like seeing my boost instead :nice: )and i angled it out to see if i could see if i did races someone.
To me it does perfect, i can see from my front side then in the rear view i can see if someone is reading my tags....hehe
And like i said, you can mount 4? cams total if need be.

Looks pretty cool...I myself have a helmet cam that has suction cups on it and I can mount it to any smooth surface such as a window or the hood or whatever...It even suctions to the side of my helmet at the track to give a drivers perspective view...
