Any ideas on how to attach an action cam to the car? I guess the easiest option would be to mount with a suction cup but I’m worried of the potential of the mount not holding up.

so I came by this,


They currently do not have an option available for the Emira, after contacting customer support, looks like they should be able to create one fairly easily with the correct dimensions.

Unfortunately I don’t have access to my car until the end of the week but it’d be great if someone could grab a quick pic of the tow hook that comes with the car. (Should be in the tool kit).

Thanks!

I bought this NEEWER suction mount and its extremely sturdy - It will not fall off. BUT I have PPF and unfortunately it ink-transfered and dented my PPF, which thankfully came out with some heat. So if you have PPF, the hook mount is prob a better option, or just suction it only to glass.

Since Raceseng don't make this anymore, would be good if someone could replicate this. Perfect for track as you can still have your tow hook on

This with whatever tow hook of theirs you like best

Great! Thank you!

While I’m at it, let me check if any of the other Japan members want in so that at least we don’t have to pay for freight individually.

Thank you! I was just about to propose that. One piece for me, and if you are ordering the Feather Lite tow hooks, I would like a yellow one. Thanks!
 
Any Video of what it looks like from the camera?

There's probably a Japanese market dealer that has them already in stock. I would check with ZL1 to see who they deal with in Japan, and place your order through a stocking dealer.

GRP carries them in the US market, for example. But there's probably someone similar in Japan.

Thanks @Porter for your advice! Surely there may be some local distributors who carry the product but ordering direct wasn’t such a pain, shipping costs to Japan was about 40 bucks so not a biggie as once we split, can bring it down to about 10 bucks a head.

Will report back once I get my hands on the tow hook, also have an order in for an insta 360 x3, not much of a creator myself but definitely would like to share some eye candy if I can manage to get some photo genic footage!
