    Thumbs up Carbon fiber headrest camera mount review

    Vlad just got a new toy for the car and after testing it out i figured it's worth a quick review.

    The camera mount was purchased from the subaru legacy forum and came pretty quickly - after a little hesitation the guy even agreed to lower the customs value so we didn't get overly hit with customs/brokerage fees.

    the mount itself works perfectly - holds the camera steady in place, allows for an unobstructed view positioning and if you have a dash-mounted gauge pod - captures the gauges while giving a good view of the road.

    the CF part makes this mount not only light-weight but also gives a good esthetic touch.

    all in all great item! except for the fact that i think that it would look much better in my car than vlad's being carbon fibre and all

    I think it's too late! Ahahaha....


    Looks like an awesome product and easy to use. Been meaning to make one of these for myself. Maybe I'll whip up a batch as a winter project =)

    That looks awesome. How much did it end up costing?

    Suggestion. Might want to make sure that the camera isn't also displaying your speedo...

    Edit: I mean your speedometer and not your favorite swimming wear.

    I usually have my phone recording when I drive mounted on my dash and I'm hoping to catch a crash one day.
