What's up guys. Anybody mind sharing a camera or phone mount they've had success with mounting on the bulkhead to record your drive?

I set up a go pro clone standard mount with a strong 3" diameter magnet with felt on the bottom and so far I've only used it on my dash with safaris and it's been rock solid. I'm sure you could stick it about anywhere but maybe not fully in the wind at freeway speeds.

Whenever I've needed a solution for holding a device, RAM seem to have something that'll work...

All,

Don't have an idea for a camera, but for my phone I just stick it in the ashtray and stream my music via Bluetooth. I can see most of the phone's screen, if needed for navigation, otherwise I try to ignore the phone while driving. I even put a hole in the bottom of the ashtray to run a hidden charging cable.

Cheers

-Rich
