Well, I kept meaning to order the camera mount that bolts on, like the one Conq had and sold to Flasher2001. Only problem with this is, I am a slacker and didn't order it.

I have seen a suggestion (on the old forums I think, can't find it) on how to make your own. I am not completely down with this, but I really would like to have video from the trip and homemade is better than nothing.

Any suggestions welcome.

I've got the RAM mount one... works better as a GPS mount, the video camera tends to be shakey when shooting video. My digital camera can shoot video with less shake due to less weight... Conq I think mentioned he had tried the RAM with a lipstick and that seemed to work...

I would like a lipstick camera so I may move that way.

Thanks for the offer RedTalon.

I didn't express that I waited way too long. There isn't time for me to order something and for it to be shipped.

It is ok, last night I made a trip to Home Depot and fabricated a bracket. It isn't the best, but it is crazy sturdy. I also bought some Industrial Strength Velcro to wrap around the mount to make sure the camera doesn't go anywhere.

Thanks again guys.

Would you post some pictures for us? I'm interested in seeing how people are mounting their cameras.

Thanks

Why not just get a mini camera that plugs into the main camer aunit, mount it on the tank with a single screw into the fuel tank cap, and that way you can keep the real video camera safe in the boot?

I'll try and take a photo og what I mean, would make more sense than my words I think..
