Me too. Def. didn't expect it to be this sturdy. It was basically a plan in my head that turned into reality. This could have been a total failure but ended up being awesome!

STEP 5:
Cut the excess rubber piece. Please do not cut the exact size you measured. Cut maybe a cm mm or two larger. This will prevent from overlapping when you tighten the clamps later.

haha.. will do! Due to my profession outside the forum, I'm VERY familiar with tiny measurements like mm. But if you're serious, i can convert them and add it to the DIY.

I suggest that you use primer on the PVC joints before gluing. It makes the bond much stronger and more able to handle vibration/shock.

Ahh.. didn't know about that. If I make another extension pipe or any future pvc job, I'll remember your suggestion.

Good think my windows are tinted, im sure I will get comments all the time at the store or gas station, look at that ricer with a camera in his car haha....that will be me! It is right above the acc outlet too, will make a charge cord simple.
Like the rear view mirror is useful in our cars !
DIY FTW!

Dude, get one. Even if you autox or any other sports, these camera's are great. I use it for HPDE, Autox, Go karting (indoor), Go karting (outdoor), on my bicycle, on my helmet etc. Very good camera. Money well spent.
