***** Installs and Finds *******
I heard rumors of a cheap suction camera mount BUT couldn't find one under $100, until i started a physical search that is!
Went to the old 'Future Shop' (Not sure what its now called) and i found this handy little Suction Mount, Made by NexxTech it was $19.99 and is very strong!
Highly recommended for those random drift vids!

Simple Vented Hood
1) Go to a Part Source or Canadian Tire.
2) Get the following items (sizes depends on vehicle and make)
a> ~40 1/4" washers
b> 4 x 30mm - 40mm bolts matched to existing width and thread pattern of hood bolt (remember only add about 10-15mm to existing bolt length)
3) Gather appropriate tools; in my case 12mm and 13mm sockets and wrench
4) ** BEST APPROACH DEPENDS ON MAKE AND MODEL ** In my case: Open Hood and remove 2 bolts from one side of hood and have a second person hold the hood in place! Push 1st bolt into hood mount and place 10 1/4" washers onto other side of bolt then proceed to do the same to the 2nd 1/4" bolt. Then proceed to thread and tighten the 2 bolts into hood.
5) Copy step #4 on other side of hood!
6) Close hood and inspect fit! You should have gained about 1" - 1 1/2" depending on # of washers and thickness of washers.
