i'll see if ours has the name on it.. it's pretty sturdy and has suction caps so it can go almost anywhere - including on the outside of the car :)

Let us know how you get on with it. So far i've been using a mini tripod stand. I remove the passenger headrest and one of the legs fits perfectly into the hole (not much use for recaros etc.). I'm considering something better though, as it's a bit of a low position as well as bodge-tastic.

Delayed laugh.  ;D

What about a bullet-camera in the snorkel vent? It sounds painful, but could be cool.

guys..been an ironic week so far.. got into work monday and was called in the gaffers office and was asked about hd camera's for hgv's..  ;D

Made a few calls and organised 2 trial camera's to be fitted to some scania's.. well the fitter never turned up and i had to install them myself which was easy as pie.. i installed the new HQ-DNR-1 Bullet Camera with sd card hard drive.. the pictures are amazing and thought these would make a great track cams.. hopefully im going to order an additional 170 units so discount could be asked for.. lets see if any extra can be placed on the order so we can benifit for anybody on here interested.?

Belated I know, but I finally found the receipt for ours...

http://www.chasecam.com/mount/suction/SM31

Had no probs with it and very little shake


Price hasn't changed in 5 years! ($15 shipping might have though)
