Hi, bought a stick on suction cup thingy (£6.80 from Amazon can't beat it!)... and I have my Kodak Playsport (720p) Camera..now where to actually attach it....

I've tried it on the back window...seems to point down too much, i.e. it's too high.
Tried this morning on the windscreen, passenger side... too low... anyone done this any thoughts ?
I can try on the back window again but pointing upside down I suppose...

Quality wise it's perfect, no shakes (stability control on) etc just not right positionally...

I wanted to get it set up right for my car limits course....
Pictures of your setup would be most gratefully received....

I did some filming once in my Elise and attached the camera to the back window with a suction mount. The only problem was when you put the hood on the car, the automatic exposure control on the camera thought it was half dark, so the road was over-exposed. Other than that I got an absolutely perfect view forwards.
