Hi guys,
Two months ago, I bought a GT680W. Even though it's a pretty small camera, you can easily see it from outside the car.
I saw Techmoan's video about the Mobius lens extension cable and decided to do the same with my 680.
Unlike the Mobius, the 680's lens ribbon connector only has 24 pins (26 for the Mobius).
I searched a little and found a lens extension cable designed for the 808 #16 camera. 24 pins. I decided to give it a try, it costs only 6$. - http://goo.gl/NBrVbu
Three weeks later, the cable was here. Opened the camera, tested (without big expectations) and... it worked. No visual artifacts, no quality loss, perfect. (at 1080p 30fps).
I sometimes use a different car, so I had to figure out a mounting solution that would allow me to easily take the camera off the windshield and mount it in the other car.
I used the high density foam that came with the 680 (the protection in the box) and a GoPro quick release buckle. http://goo.gl/3p8Uou
In order to attach the quick release to the "lens case", I carved three small grooves in the foam and inserted it (upside down). It's really strong, doesn't move, the video does not shake at all.
Now I can unmount the lens and the body of the 680 in a few seconds. The body is attached to the windshield dotted area with dual lock 3M velcro.
And, of course, I hid the gps and charging cables.
Here's a link with all the pictures : http://imgur.com/a/ylQiP
The camera is almost invisible from the outside now.
