from wat i saw a few months ago, it's either power or mic. my hero2 is mounted inside my car 100% of the time, so i need power and mic input.

Uhhhh, It's likely one or the other. GoPro's own cable is only a single Mini USB to Female connector, with nothing branching off.

How would you intend to power the GoPro AND feed it an audio feed?

Actually, better yet...how are you feeding power to your GoPro in the car?

yeah go pro messed up a bit on the design with that. Might need the extended battery and power that while using audio mic.

but thats wht im gonna work on a bracket for the license plate. It seems to be the best area to void noise and central to both exhausts.

i actually looking into a system with multiple wireless mics that feeds into a single source to feed into go pro.

this is so i can get the side exit exhausts too, but need a way to avoid wind noise.

I agree FWIW, that license plate spot would be best. Another thing to try is to simply aim the microphone upwards, and stick it to the fog light spot. That may work, too.

yep, that's wat i saw a few months ago.

i have a dual usb power adapter in the center console which it routed under the console, behind the passenger seat, to the gopro headrest mount. i also have an external stereo mic feeding into it from around the rear glovebox area. it's quite good.

cant post picts because the upload feature at this site is broken right now. and thanks to some arse last year, i deleted all my albums.
