Default Video camera mount

I'm looking for a way to mount my video camera inside my C6. I don't have a roll bar or anything, and don't want to drill holes either. I don't think a suction cup mount will be strong enough. Any suggestions? It's for a day of instruction at Sebring. Thanks, Kevin

I use a harness bar mount, but before I got it I heard a lot about this:

Sticky Pod

I know you said you don't think it will work, but others have used it and like it very much.

If you want a cheap solution (about $20) you can do what I did. I bought a tripod and used the top section. I bought 2 adel clamps from the hardware store and drilled and mounted them in the backside of the ledge that separates the "trunk" from the drivers area and then put one more screw through the tripod pole. I know you said you didn't want to drill but where you have to drill for this you will never see once the mount is removed. I have a '03 z06 which made this much harder to do because I had to crawl into the trunk (good thing I am only 5'8") to do the drilling/mounting. On a coupe this shouldn't be as hard.

I worried that the mount would not be rigid enough but the video turned out fine.

I like the Sticky Pod idea, but I wonder if it will stick to the dash? I'll e-mail them. Thanks
