    I just purchased one used for $30, haven't used it yet, Very simple and easy mounting, only problem I can see is if you have a passenger in the seat you mount it on, you might get vibrations. I may be able to try mine out this weekend ussing my dad's ancient camcorder.
    Here are some pics of it installed

      Well I used the mount this weekend, and had a passenger with me. Worked perfect, gave a good view of the corner of the steering wheel, and tach and the road ahead. My windshield was filthy but the video was very stable. If I can find a place to host the video I'll post it up one here, or IM me and I'll transfer it to you.

        I'd like to see the video. I am trying to decide between the cruisecam mount or a windshield/dash mount.

            I have a cruisecam mount, so does Ryan Stewart, I like mine a lot, vibrations aren't bad as long as the seat is solid.

              i would like to get the suction one, that you can put on your roof, or the side, saw one for a 100 bucks but dont remember where from this guy has one with a corrado near me on ny, but its like the same one used by dubaudi, dont know if you have seen any of their vids, but they come out real well

                  Always had good videos with the cruise cam, if your seat is solid or if you have an instructor in the seat it will stay very still and not shake much at all.

                    these work better if some1 IS sitting in the seat. otherwise the seat will jiggle... i put mine on the drivers seat, so that it would be nice and stable. worked out really well.

                        If someone sets one up - great. If not, I'll order one in the next couple of weeks.
