    So bandit, how bad was it with the viewer on the sun visor? That would be the only option I would have or the passengers sun visor. I mean, it's not like you would be watching a video, just a 'check 6' glance.

    Exactly! It's just fine on the driver visor. It's become second nature to flip down the visor when I back up!

    Soon I'll be modding even more with pan and tilt controls. HOW? You ask. Good question!

    I'm thinking I could go to a wrecking yard, find a power mirror assembly from oh say a Honda or a Mazda, anything, something cheap.. and take out the two motor pan/tilt mechanism AND the control switch from the cabin.

    After a little modding, I could mount it in the rear blister with the camera attached, and put the switch up front in the fuzzy hole ( ohhhh fuzzy hole))) what??
    heh heh

    Anyway.. that might be some fun eh?
    Sold the VX 11-21-07. It was fun while I had it!
    Thanks for all the help.

    i like that idea dino! at one point i was going to try to do that with lights.. then realized that with the weight of a decent light and the bumpy ride of the vx.. the mount wouldnt hold very sturdy.. with a lightweight camera it could be pretty sweet though! good luck w/ that mod!
