Jaycar has small camera's which you could mount in the bumper bar. Are you planning on doing a " Getaway in Stockholm" |

i have done this before get a strip of metal say 500mm long, 40mm wide, and about 5mm-8mm thick take your head rest off your seat, with the 2 headrest pins mark 2 notches on one end of the metal strip, drill these 2 notches out making sure that the headrest pins will go through the 2 holes freely then on the other end of the metal strip drill out a series of holes so that the cameras mounting screw can be fixed to those holes with the camera strapped to the metal strip you then put the headrest through the 2 holes that you drilled and put your headrest back on therefor your headrest will have a metal strip attatched to it, the metal strip should head toward the passenger seat and the camera will then be mounted inbetween the 2 front seats soo all you need is a metal strip with 2 measured holes on one end, and a series of camera mounting holes on the other end hope you can understand these directions |

Thanks guys, I've got a mate getting some metal for me to play with and I've got some rough plans. Does anyone remember which issue of AutoSalon the DIY was in? |

Quick update, the bracket got made up out of 3mm ally with a rolled edge to stiffen it up, then the only problem was too much vibration through the seat itself, now I'm mounting it to a plate about 200x300mm with a support arm to both child seat anchor bolts, this will remove any body vibration and hopefully be stiff enough for the camera. |
