In-Car Camera Mount Project Pics

SRT Handz · Mar 28, 2007

So, for the longest time i have been trying to mount a camera inside my car to record Laps at Trackdays and Canyons runs. A Sparco harness bar and the mount to hold a camera would be close to $400!!! So i decided to make my own.

I went to a local camera shop and Bought this 3-D Movable mount to hold the Camera. Cost $30.

So then i began the construction of The Bar. I decided to make something the mounted in between the 2 seats using the headrest bar for support. I bought 1'x36' Square Aluminum Tubing. Some flat U-Bolts and some other hardware to make it come together.

I then measured Twice and Mocked it up. My drill ran out of batteries so i used a dremel to drill the holes and cut the excess threads off the bolts so everything fit clean and flush.....and just to make it look a little Pimp i Used metal polish and made the aluminum Tube Shine!!! Cant wait to get out and get some pics and vids!!!

I Used My Pocket Camera for The Demo and Mock up Pics.

My house is 5 mins from Turnbull Canyon, GMR (Glendora Mountain Road), and Santiago Canyon.

all three of those were in Sport Compacts Magazine's Top 10 Canyons to Touge in the US

Thanks dude, I think watching The PowerBlock every weekend for the last 4 or 5 years final made me want to fab up some crazy metal stuff

Nice piece! I've been thinking about making something similar for mine, but I always figured most people are more interested in what's happening on the outside (burnouts
and whatnot). Do I see a stock H-pipe in one picture there next to some drums?

I know..isnt it a dope rug. even when i was a kid i raced cars lol.

I use it in the garage...its tight

thomas91169 · Mar 28, 2007

dude that rug kicks ass! i had the one that had the city on it, always drifted my hotwheels around it.

btw thats a good idea, i might fab up a mount soon as well that is universal so it works with my GT and my 1990 GSX, and i too had the idea of a bar utilizing a C clamp system to hook into the headrests. Nice work, now i dont have to use my brain.

Wade95 · Mar 29, 2007

Don't know 'bout mounting using headrest posts. I probably would've used the upper seatbelt mounting bolts. Hate for one of the sides to break and that rod come around and smack you in da head.
