I finally made the mount I've been wanting to make for years - the "driver hanging out the window" perspective!

This will fit basically all GoPros that stick to the “standard” GoPro shape, but I designed it to fit a Hero 7 Black, but with lots of extra space.

Printing

Print the two parts as is, making sure to follow the orientation in the photo. No supports needed.

Gluing

Use some strong plastic glue to glue the hook piece into the groove - note the correct orientation/direction of the hook! Reference the attached photos for help.

Installing

  1. Put the camera in the mount.
  2. Wrap a rubberband around the camera to secure it in place. I've found the fatter rubber bands found on produce from the grocery store work well.
  3. Wedge in the bottom onto the lower cage, then push in towards the driver side while lifting up the top beam for some extra clearance. It is a tight fit.

There you have it. I really like the perspective as in real life crawling, you tend to need to stick your head out the window to see where you're going. Enjoy!
