Thanks for the DIY Ak. I've been experimenting with different mount points inside the car. The expectation is to capture the drivers actions & gauges as well as the exterior view. Your option gave me some ideas, with some small modifications for my goals.

I've been using RAM mounts for all my cameras. I picked up from Amazon;
- a skeleton case for the GoPro to connect either an external mic or charge the camera for $22.00, and
- Mfr. P/N Description Price
B0074WMQLS RAM Mount Plastic Medium Arm B-Sock $10.99
B001ES5D5Y RAM Mount 1.75 inch Long Double $13.99
B009GLW1PG RAM Mount Female 0.25-20 Thread Hex $7.49
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Item Total: $32.47
Shipping: $0.00
Subtotal: $32.47
Tax: $0.00
Total: $32.47

I've only used it on one cruise so far and am happy with the results. Camera placement will have to be fine tuned, but only a matter of time until the optimum spot is achieved.

Thanks again.

I have a track day coming up in early August at Mosport and my son and I were determined to get my GoPro into the action. Thank you AK370Z for this awesome idea! I used slightly different parts but the concept is virtually identical. I haven't yet glued or painted the mount but any skepticism we had about the basic design have disappeared after this test fit in the car. This is a really solid mount!
