    so easy, even i can do it! literally opened the box, put in the batteries, read (some) instructions, and took a spin around the block. i also used the rear wheel arch area.....but am convinced there are better angles, and will play with them this weekend.

    mikey at helix has had these things all over his car. ralph, maybe you could get him to post some clips from diff mounting spots?

    here's what you can do with little knowlage or effort....and you can pay less than me if you do this group buy!

    I've been looking for a camera to use for AX and DE days. This looks like just what the doctor ordered - AA batteries and SD card FTW!.
    Put me down for two.

    Now to decide whether to stick with wide angle or one of each. ;)

    Love that 70's cop show music there Ralph. Was half expecting a shot of Eric sliding over a MINI hood.

    We are expecting to have these in sometime Thursday and they'll ship out either same day or Friday, depending on how early we get them.

    Shipping to Colorado is 3 days.

    Hi all,

    I missed the fed-ex drop this afternoon, I knew it was on the truck from the tracking ticket. Darn....

    I went down to the shop to pick up my track wheels&tires and 15 minutes later, Fed-ex is at the house.

    Guess I will get it Wednesday, give me something to try out in the evening, perhaps a mountain drive with a GoPro shooting the sunset.

    We shall see, if they drop it while I'm around tomorrow.

    Don
