Bullet Camera

Hey guys and gals...I'm looking for a bullet camera to mount around the car. Do any of you know where a relatively inexpensive one is? The best one I've found is this:

Any suggestions?

Mine is a Point N shoot sony camera, not a bullet cam. I know there are alot of guys in the AX/RR section that use bullet cams (jtkeller and vettedrmr)

It's normally wired to my Alpine D-900 system.
I have also plugged it into my video camcorder for recording the rear action passes at the track....

BULLET CAMERAS .....and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Worked in catching a slimball theif once.... WATCH IT ---- yeah - it was unlocked - specifically using as "bait" so the boys in blue could finally catch these ****** - MUG SHOT which they did about a month later..

Always running specials too...get on their email list for almost daily specials....

GOOD LUCK

The company should use your story as a marketing tool. What camera would you recommend?

I want a bullet camera that I can mount anywhere on the exterior of the car.

I would not spend more than $100 bucks on one. The photo quality is quite good. 480 lines is plenty good enough. I've tried several different kinds and can't tell the difference. My bullets are on 24 x7 and only had one failure in 2+ years in all kinds of weather and heat.
