    Default go pro mounting

    Ok folks I must be retarded because the search function never gets me what I'm looking for. I just got a go pro hero 3 and I have the JT mount on the dash. I know there was a whole thread on mounting but for the life of me I can't locate it. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. I what to connect it to the JT dash mount but need to figure out what all I'll need to complete the project. Thanks in advance.

    You'll need one of these to go from the gopro to a RAM arm to JT's thingy:

    and here's an example of a RAM arm (they are various lengths):

    I get my stuff from gpscity.com.

    Probably because go is 2 letters and pro is 3 letters. The search function on this site, and others that use the same forum s/w, will not search on words less than 4 letters. In that case Google works good. Try a search like this using Google: go pro mount site:spyderlovers.com

    gopro is 5 letters, and when you type in "gopro+mounting" in the advanced search here, you get the link above.

    I have the jt dash mount and tried the gopro on it and it worked great. The problem for me was too many bugs hit the windshield. Had the same problem when I had it mounted behind the windshield on my 2 wheeler. So I just used one of the adhesive mounts on top of the mirror on my rt and it works great. Was worried about it coming loose or off. No problems so far and have used it on many trips so far. I seldom have a bug hit the camera lense on the gopro, unlike the windshield. I also installed a couple of power plugs on the speaker covers and run power to the camera in good weather. I still use the jt mount for my gps with an X mount.
