Suggestion
I would also recommend investing on an external microphone (in case you don't have one), a wind cover sock for it, and an extension cord.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hey, I have a 99 C4 Cab and i was wondering if anyone knew of aftermarket camera mounts for such a car? I dont have a roll bar in it, so that wont work.. Any ideas?
I use a Manfrotto suction camera mount. Costs about �90 not sure where you would get it in the US or how much but here is a link to a UK site that sells them. Highly recommended.

Manfrotto makes great products. I haven't used their car mount but I have 2 Manfrotto tripods and a monopod. They are made in Italy and are very good quality.
Manfrotto is sold under the brand "Bogen" in the US.
I just checked out B&H and they carry the Bogen/Manfrotto suction grip for $93.95 which is not a bad price.

They also carry window mounts but obviously those would not work with the cab top down.
Programmatore is on the right track... Check this setup

I've seen it in action and it's very effective. You could probably build-it yourself and save some $$$ by outsourcing the parts from B&H. This is a spring project for me. I would also recommend investing on an external microphone (in case you don't have one), a wind cover sock for it, and an extension cord. So you can place the mic closer to the engine around the rear seats.
Let us know what you end up with.
TY Programmatore, that is what i was thinking exactly. I am not sure that can be mounting on inside of windshield though. Fast40th, that unit looks like it would work perfectly. I am gonna hit my local camera shops and Frys and see what they have available. Maybe i can jerry rig something. I was gonna build one myself, but if i can buy one resonable? I really like the idea of the microphone to the back. We did a little taping this weekend, and you definately dont hear to much engine noise. That is part of the fun right?
This is the Manfrotto setup I have. It works fine when using on any window in the 996 cab except the rear quarters. I have even had it mounted from the back window.
I got a "bullit cam" that hooks on to my camcorder.
It's very small and light. I have it mounted in an arm that screws into the coat hanger behing the headrest.
