I just tried the bracket. Its not too bad, but there is a bit of vibration that works its way through the seat. I think I might need to tighten the bracket a bit.

Here's the short video(20MB) I took to test the bracket. Ignore the ratling keys and the low fuel warning.

Great footage. The TE is one angry car. And it sounds great. And put some fuel in it

With the price of fuel these days it hasn't had a full tank for a while, but I will fill it up on Sunday morning before getting to macas.
Yep it was a cop car. I wasn't speeding, I just stabed the pedel a few times to see how much the camera would move.

I had the bracket fully extended. I think if I shorten it a bit so there is less leverage and push the headrest down to squeze on the bracket it wont move as much.

The cop car was prety funny. Surprised he didn't hear the car. I do love the sound of the car. Might have to overlay the sound onto my car. Like the exhaust mod movie :

Just a word of warning: DO NOT use the Bell St entrance to macas, Use the St Georges Rd entrance, unless you want to leave your bumper behind.
I will give Bucky a call so he can let the interstate guys know that are staying at the hotel.
