Didnt realize its plastic. Holes are close to lining up but this mount will blast into smithoreens within 1 offroad rip. Need to find same thing but aluminum version should work

Idk man, every GoPro mount I've ever seen is plastic and they hold up just fine.Didnt realize its plastic. Holes are close to lining up but this mount will blast into smithoreens within 1 offroad rip. Need to find same thing but aluminum version should work
Hey that's true and didnt even cross my mind. That plastic feels like a totally different league than this amazon one though. I would categorize the "feel" difference to be akin to sheet metal vs. 1/4" aluminumIdk man, every GoPro mount I've ever seen is plastic and they hold up just fine.
Yea fair point, GoPro probably spent a fair bit of cash developing those mounts.Hey that's true and didnt even cross my mind. That plastic feels like a totally different league than this amazon one though. I would categorize the "feel" difference to be akin to sheet metal vs. 1/4" aluminum
Just keep it simple and go out the firewall. There’s wires already going that way and I’m sure it’ll be much cleaner and give you a peace of mind.Ok so i took a closer look last night and im not seeing a lot of options for routing out of the cab (especially in the back seat area). Anybody have a good idea for routing a cable out of the cab in the 2nd row area?
If I'm going to go out the firewall, then i might as well route the cable directly from the rear-view mirror and not even mess with the connection in the 2nd row headliner (at the 3rd brake light). But would like to know if anyone has a good solution for the 2nd row cab exit routing...
Probably what i'll end up having to do. Would like the option though if doesnt require any drillingJust keep it simple and go out the firewall. There’s wires already going that way and I’m sure it’ll be much cleaner and give you a peace of mind.
Check out this video, he's installing a BAP, but you can see how he routes the wiring at about the 30 second mark through a big grommet in the floor. This is exactly how I did my BAP.Ok so i took a closer look last night and im not seeing a lot of options for routing out of the cab (especially in the back seat area).

Hell ya man, thx!Check out this video, he's installing a BAP, but you can see how he routes the wiring at about the 30 second mark through a big grommet in the floor. This is exactly how I did my BAP.
BAP Install
If you're worried about water getting in, I would drill a hole and buy a grommet online that fits the wire perfectly.Well, I decided to take a few minutes to pull down the dash cam and see if I could get the camera to work and you’re going to need a female to female Connection if you want to run it from the rearview mirror so all four of my different length (male to female) cables are useless for this setup lol.

In other news, I did find where that BAP guy was routing out of his cab, but I am somewhat afraid to touch it because of how many water crossings and things we do. The last thing I need is to be bringing in gallons of water into my floorboard where I have 50lbs of random gear stored.

truth!If you're worried about water getting in, I would drill a hole and buy a grommet online that fits the wire perfectly.
Thing is, if you're in water that high, it's coming in through the doors anyway.
