Low profile mount?

[G_Loc]

Hello,

I recently purchased a G1W-C and so far I'm happy with it. My plan always was to permanently mount it in my vehicle, so I ordered the rear view mirror mount. Unfortunately this puts it too low and is always in my line of sight. The suction mount doesn't work since the windshield has some texture to it and either way, it would still place it too low. I bought mine from Foxoffer, so it came with the larger suction mount.

Is there a permanent or semi-permanent low profile mount which will place the camera in front of the rear view mirror and mostly out of sight?

I've been searching and reading, but I've come up blank.

Thank you!

Do you have a link or model number for the mount?

 

[jokiin]

no, some of the G1W's come with it though, you might have to look around the various sellers to find who has it

not sure if they have the one you need but this is a seller I've bought from previously when I needed odd spare parts and they were reliable, good to deal with http://szsmilin.en.alibaba.com/search/product?SearchText=3m

I have solution to use suction mount on that "texture" area behind rear-view mirror.

Ask estore009 on eBay. He sells a 3M adhesive mount for G1W, but not listed on eBay

I recently bought this mount for my G1W-C www.airyear.com/hongchuang-zt02d1-360-degrees-adjustable-abs-adhesive-holder-mount-for-gps-car-dvr-black-p-81356.html
Don't want to use the suction type mount and the rearview mount doesn't fit on rearview mirror.

Some weird looking G1Ws on AliExpress seen a few with way different style mounts then what I use. I was going to mention though that the 3M mount from a Vico WF1 fits and is small, but what jokiin seems even smaller
