They are all suckion cup style.

Here are some pics.



One I tried was the one with the red cap. Its the smallest 4inch suction cup mount.

The BIG one is 10" mount with 175lb capacity.. I'm going to use that to strap the camera just in case it falls off the car.

All the mounts are plastic except for the big rectangular one.. so it shouldn't scratch the car.. hopefully!

Becareful with those.. as you want one with a vacuum pump.

I did some research and the vacuum pump versions are more stable and less chance of popping loose.... especially outside of the car, when it falls, most likely your camera will not survive!. Inside, I think it should be fine.

Thanks Phil. I'm going to do some test runs with it mounted in front of the sunroof, with it open. If something should go wrong, I hope it falls in the car. I have a couple of camera's that I use. With one, I would be more worried about the mount. That will be the outside cam. I'm also looking at a lip stick cam to cover outside footage so I can keep the other mount in the car.
