For windshield mounting the design for this camera is really bad. The attachment point for the case which holds the camera a too short. This design does not allow the camera to tilt so it can be aimed straight. This attachment point should be longer to allow the back camera case hinge to clear when tilting the camera. So adjustments to get the camera aimed straight must be made by adding several other adjusting parts. The camera mounts upside down with no problem but then the video has to be flipped. I'm really unhappy with a design that makes windshield mounting so difficult. Solving the problem would be an easy fix. Making the attachment point just 1/8 inch longer (see arrow) would correct this bad design.
