Make sure you don't have the window up and close the door

I don't know how much you're willing to spend but there's a product out there called a CruiseCam that runs about $45 and attaches to the headrest bars of a seat to secure the camcorder. It's similar to the mount you made with the monopod, except it doesn't require zipties.

 

For just that fear I installed the mono-pod from the back seat with front passenger door closed and the window up... just to make sure it fit Don't need no broken window The only real problem I had was that, initially, I didn't tighten the ball mount enough. I hit an expansion joint and the camera flopped over. I found a safe place to pull over and fixed it. As soon as I learn how to use the video editing software I'll post some shots.

 

WARNING:KIDS, DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!

 

A couple of things
Nethack you got a PM

Second, is anyone using a DIY headrest mount also running a Schroth harness? Since it runs under the headrest, my own prototype mount wasn't usable since it blocks the path of the harness.
