Where to buy an in car tripod / video camera mount..?
Having blasted around Knockill Circuit last week and viewed the external footage my mate took... I am craving a more 'Getaway..' look.. thinking about getting some kind of in car mount / windscreen mount... having said that would be nice to include the steering wheel etc in shot... also toying with the idea of a cheap camera to get the rec counter and splice in the footage... maybe not but at some pount 
Would like to see installation fotos and how it is mounted - looking to have this in place for next track day next month..
Please include supplier details & costs if possible..
If I don't get much on this I'll resort to gaffer tape!

haven't got one yet, but I found a decent looking one on Ebay US for about £60 which sucks onto the rear window, pointing the camera between the seats, which gives the best shot. Deom Tweaks do a similar one for about £100, which I recon is a bit pricey.
Got some good footage at Knockhill in my Golf by drilling through the (MDF) parcel shelf, and putting a screw through which has the same thread as a tripod. Done the same on the Scoob, but not track tested it yet.
Of you can it's worth tirnig the camers round too, and getting footage of the car behind you
Isn't Knockhill ace? flying over the blind chicane and drifting out of it - complete with view over the river and Edinborough is surreal on a track.
