After weeks of waiting, I finally received the adhesive mount for my G1WC so it does a better job of not hanging down so low that it blocks the view.
Only isuee it seems to have is that the ball joint section of the mount seems to be a bit loose. I'd have the screw nut(? idk what you call that) tightened as much as possible but the ball joint would still move. Not sure how it would affect the camera when I go through bumps (and since I commute to Detroit, there's a fair share of them).
Is it just a one of a kind faulty mount that I got? Or am I just not tightening the nut properly? I can't be bothered to return it back to China especially with the threat of a CanadaPost strike. The thing was $3 off of ebay anyway.
If there's also a way to create more friction in the ball joint that would be also good.
(Picture is before it was tightened and stuck to the windshield)
