    Fl. leads the country in road rage. Last I heard there's 3 million legal carry permits here in FL. Out of 3 million there has to be a few loonie toons in the mix. ==== My point, stay alert & do not engage, keep your GoPro rolling. ==
    Yep, we have all seen them

    You can do a search and see there are many different locations to mount them. I have mine mounted top left mirror and find it works great. I wired my charging cable from my left glove box up through the mirror. This allows me to run the camera for longer than the 2hrs battery life. I also have a 128 card that enables the go-pro to run on loop mode. It will record just over 11 hours before it rewrites over.
    The 2 apps that come free are good to use it would enable you to zoom in or snap pics from your footage.
    here is a link to my you-tube page so you can see the quality of vids. keep in mind I have mine set on the lowest resolution of 720.

    Thanks guys. It just pisses me off that this guy basically got away with it, and the cops could care less to figure out who it was. I guess I have to take matters into my own hands.

    How did you mount it there? Screws, or just the tape?

    Just the tape and it is still holding no problems after many trips and lots of miles. Just clean the area with an alcohol wipe first.
