In car camera mounting?

There's no place to mount my videocam like there was on my M3. Whats the best way to mount inside the turbo?

I just got one of these and highly recommend it. I use a Sony HDR-HC1 which is somewhat heavy experienced little to no vibration/shake issues

I have the same camera mount but wasn't sure if I should use it or not. Do you mount yours on the side window or front windshield? I have tinted windows and probably would suck the film right off using the suction cup. Probably best to use the front windshield I guess.

I've been looking for a cross bar solution without having to make it permanent.

I put it on the passenger side window. No damage to the tint. I can't get it to work on the front glass unless the camera is inverted
