here John, I have the Lukas 7900. I really like it. It provides excellent video quality.
I took one from the outside, not sure if it will show up but it just barely visible from the outside and unobtrusive inside.

I have the Go Pro Hero 3+
Nothing I can really share yet as the videos are to large to post.
I used it to fill from Dana Point California to the Port of LA up the pacific coast highway.
It does a great job - the only issue I have is the Wi-Fi, if you use it, is picky.
It turns on and you can't turn it off without pulling the battery.
I want to download the smart phone app as you can use it to control the camera, which to me will be much easier.

I use GoPro 2's and 3's. I've had great luck with them and will stay on the car at triple digit speeds..

To copy Tim above, I also have the same gopro cameras. Video taken at the same place too. LOL. The smartphone app is the greatest thing since sliced NPP collars. The app acts as a remote control over every function of the camera.

Outside rear window mount. Stays on at any speed, no worries.




Side body panel mount


Inside mount

I have the go pro3 and the remote kinda stunk...the phone app is the only way to fly. it does MORE than just turn the camera off and on which is great, you can watch your movies, delete ones.. the wi-fi works from pretty far away which is good too. When i take my 87 IROC to track days i have the camera in front of the right headlights, but behind a headlight cover. the phone app lets me turn it off and on from the drivers seat so i don't waste recording time.
