ANY DIY MAY VOID WARRANTY OF THE PRODUCT !
ACT ON YOUR OWN RISK !!!
....................................................................................
There are many dash cameras out there ( mostly Korean make ) that are using double-side ( 3M ) tape to mount them permanently to the windshield, which is not that practical.
Here is an idea how to convert them into removable, quick attach / detach.
I was using fridge door seal magnetic stripes. Also tested before few other special magnetic tapes ( thin and thicker ones ), but they were not as strong as fridge door seal magnets..
Hope my idea will be useful for you or even manufacturers to change their approach to use de-touchable solutions instead of permanent ones.
P.S.- I used white colour double side tape to attach magnetic stripes to the plastic mount and to windshield, but black colour double-side tape would be preferable.
Below are photos of Panorama2 and iCaro B4 dash cameras test.
