Hey!....I have that car, but it's the basic version & only came w/ the backup cam. I should be posting the results of installing my 2 Finevu Pros w/in a week or two.

Very neat & tidy installation. I agree the ring needs to be darkened. I used a black marker to hide the small letters on my Finevu Pros, but w/ the chrome, u might want to use tape or paint.

Use of velcro is a good idea however wouldn't the dashcam shake, by that I mean there is no stablisation of the video.
Have you noticed when you playback the video is "jumpy"?

u have to use the secure lock type of Velcro which is made by a couple of companies....it doesn't use fabric but semi-hard plastic on both pieces. They grip themselves tightly when pushed together & there's no movement at all.

Amazon does have it, but I get most of my DIY stuff from Mcmaster...see my post here*>>

*btw...I've named this company a few times here, I want to make clear that I have no connection w/ them but have used them extensively for at least 10 yrs. for home, computer, car & garage projects. I'm now buying stuff there to experiment w/ mounting my dashcams. They mostly serve large customers, but for us small time DIYers they're a regular Disneyland.

Yeah, I haven't had time to do it yet but I will try using a sharpie. I would love to spray paint it but judging by the build quality, I would rather not. If Sharpie doesn't hold up I will just use electric tape or gorilla duck tape.

Actually, I found it more jumpy when I used the supplied suction cup. Plus I find it a lot more secured than using a suction cup.

I have a Broadway mirror also and have been trying to find a way to get a Mobius behind it without the cam sticking out like a sore thumb. I'm about to give up and just give something flat like this a go. I was going to try double side tape it to the back of my built in rear view mirror but this would be alot easier to pull off and on.

Question on the angle of the camera though. Since you tilt it towards the driver side, do you still get a wide enough field of view to catch action on your far left driver side? Now that I think about it you could probably add some sort of foam to help angle the cam before strapping it down.

You could always extend the lens so you can mount it flat like @Jim did
Mobius super capacitor.
Or Niko's excellent magnetic mount

That extension lens would be perfect!! I never knew you could do that with the Mobius. I'll do some googling or searching on the forum but if you have links to what I need to buy and how to install the extension, I'd very much appreciate it.

Here's the link for an authorized seller Novotm who also runs BuyMobius.com. The location suggests that this is Tom Frank from the RC Group, who is an expert on the Mobius. Nice guy, so feel free to email him.
http://buymobius.com/collections/mo...able-for-the-1080p-hd-mobius-actioncam-camera
A good place to start is the RC group forum. http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1904559
The forum is for the Mobius and RC uses only so focus on the "Mobius" and related questions not questions about using it as a dash cam. Make sure you read posts #1-8 first and search the forum before posting a question. It's a 450+ page thread so repeat questions get, well, repetitive
Also ask @Jim here as well. He just wrote that he is in the rough stages so it's not a permanent neat install yet. He may be able to help with the initial cable install. I know that camera ribbon is VERY delicate.
And of course post your results and some pictures

cheap solution and I can easily move it or anything for future purporses

Anyone mounted a dash cam on a Ford Focus MK3. I got that car and it has an huge "console" in the middle for all the sensors. So I can't mount a cam behind the mirror. Next to the console is a no too, because that thing blocks a bit of the view...

Yeah, persistent cloud cover is a pretty good defuser.
