Incar camcorder mount

I understand how the vacucam works outside the car but who sells mounts for holding a camcorder stead inside the car?

The VacuCam works both inside and outside. Check this clip out on how it looks from both inside and outside.

Your other interior options include headrest mounted options--where you mount your video camcorder to a bar that attaches to your headrest. That's pretty common.

I made one for about $10 in a few parts from home depot. We have a thread on mini2 with discussion, photos, and details:

Thanks for the answers. After reading around it looks like CruiseCam is the way to go. Yeah, could probably make it from homedepot but I'm a klutz

I dont really see the point of a vacucam at this point since I already got a perfectly good minidv camcorder

I use CruiseCam and it is great. I did however mount it my drivers seat as the weight helps stop vibration and the passenger is empty alot of the time.
