thinking about a dash cam

Poster putty

I used the same tape I use to fix iPhone 4 models, it's a really thin 3M tape, and I leave the top cover on it so it slides into the mount. I cut it to fit the channel and it solves the problem perfectly

also - the DataKAM software is way better than SuperCar.

To get rid of the wobble I used a little poster putty (office supply store) in the hole on the camera that the mount slides into. I used less then a pea size and it worked great! Really solid and yet the putty is totally removable.
It won't wear away like the tape after removing the camera from the mount time and time again.

looks like 2014 might be the year of the dash cam in 'Murica

here's the first announcement from CES:

Garmin announces high-def dash cam, new Nuvi models - Autoblog

The HP ones were advertised on sale at Canadian tire, so asked automotive for them and they had no idea what I was talking about, so he gets on the phone with a manager and says they are in sporting. Sporting says never heard of them go back to automotive. Found out from another employe they are lock up in a cabinet in the storeroom and no one has a key for it.
I bet when they never sell they will put them on clearance in the future.

That is very cool, it should take Ford about 10 years or so to do the same.

i saw that option on the new vette - that is pretty dang cool. Ferrari's have had lap timers since the 599, but cameras would be awesome.

Dash cam suggestions?

Does anyone have a good dash cam they recommend? I want one with a 24hr. parking mode function. Thanks everyone.

I just got a blackvue 650-2ch with power magic pro from amazon today, looks nice so far but probably won't get to the install for a couple of days since they forgot the power magic pro.

I wanted a 2 ch. system that was discreet, permanent and basically a set it and forget it deal. The blackvue seemed to be the only one to meet all of my needs.
