Relatively easy... as in the one I built Tuesday?  |
How did you do it? |
Got a 1" box aluminum tube, 3 feet long. Drilled 2 verticle holes thru it so the passenger hearrest posts slide thru it snugly. Drilled two holes on either side of each post, converted one side's pair of holes into a slot. Put a U bolt thru the slot and bolted wing nuts on the back. Tightening the U bolt locks the bar to the head rest. Cut the bar to the correct length, and attaches a tripod mount to it. Total cost ~$50... $40 of it for a decent tripod mount.
Okay, my description might make more sense with this diagram:
I'll take some pictures if it. The only issue is that it's not rock solid because the seat itself bounces. My digi-cam doesn't have image stabilzation, so a true DV cam w/ image stabilization would prolly look fine.
