Mine came in the post the other day, and I have to say I'm surprised how small it is! I know you put a picture up, but it doesn't do it justice!!! Am impressed with the quality, but still trying to work out a decent way to mount it in my car, so will put a video up soon

Quick update 4 ya.

Tried a new position this time and got more bike noise!!!

Its a bit narrow this time due to it being mounted at 90degrees.

Thx for looking and as before please rate and comment.

Yeh, well I've had a quick play around with it, but because of work I still haven't had time to properly mount it in the car. Am planning to do it today as its my day off, but apparently they cannot cope without me for one day, so back in I go Hopefully I'll get a video up tonight

Right I have the video, but it's 719Mb. I'm reasonably sure Youtube would have a fit if I tried to upload that. How did you compress your files?

Youtube's max is 10mins long, i used Windows Movie Maker editing software and edited it accordingly.

You can upload directly from there

Ahh fair play, its on my Mac at the mo, so will try and get it on to the PC tomorrow. I ended up taping it just above the middle air vents. Worked ok but looked stupid with all the tape, I'll have to try and get a proper mount for it!

Be very wary of these, they are cheap chinese copies, some guys on a Bike forum i use have tried them and they turn out s**te!! The casing on mine is metal and is a lot more robust, the slide switches etc are all spot on.

Get the genuine one for £50 and u'll have no dramas

i ordered one as its £20 - cant afford the other one at the moment! will review it when i get it.

Im going to the evo triangle at the weekend, so if its arrived by then there will be a nice countryside blast to see.

i mounted it to the back of the interior mirror last weekend on a mate's 205GTI sprint car, that worked well in that position.

Cheers Rob - will give it a go - did u just parcel tape it on or does it have a mount? If that wont work i will cover it in foam (to stop vibrations) and parcel tape it to the front of the car!
