Has anyone tried the suction mount that sticks to the windscreen?
Yep Iused before a suction mount on the screen before (proper.Brian Hague jobbie) but these days in UK suction mount is not allowed. You could try tethering it to the mirror and say it is permanently secured.
Alternatively you could use the screw mounting points on the passenger sun blind fixing on the bottom of the roof. Easy to get at, just need a clamp that you can convert to use.
I used my cousins original GoPro Hero as my new Hero2 showed up ONE day after I left for the Ring.. not impressed GoPro!!
However mounting it on the rear window is to far back & you wouldn’t get a good/clear picture out the front window.
I’d an added problem too, my cousin lent it to a fella who lost all the feckin mounts, so I'd to improvise with a 12euro phone mount out of the service station as you exit the Eurotunnel, did the job better than I thought it would & even better now when I read the posts above & realise I'd had the same problem with the proper mount getting enough angle on it when trying to mount it on the front window.
I use the wrist band mount thingy and cable tied it to the front grill under the number plate, gives a great low angle on track, shows speed and looks good.
First I mounted the gopro on the Cage with a roll bar mount just behind the seat, but every little movement from the chassis/cage while driving could be heared on video as a loud squeak.
Now I have a other sound problem: the gopro is mounted on in the middle on front window and there is a whistling noise when accelerating. I can hear it only on Video, for example when I start a lap on the nürburgring or accelerating after Adenauer Forst. IMHO it is a electrical field from the engine. And it was NOT audible when I had the cam at the cage!
