Suction cups...
This is a bit of an odd one....But..
Im trying to find three or four small plastic suction cups that I can use as the basis for a car mounted bullet camera mount... (Something about
1-2" in diameter)
The problem is, appart from buying the blessed things on ebay, I cant think of anywhere locally that might have them..
I have been to halfords and focus to see if there was anything with suction cups that I could disasemble....but no..
So does anyone have any cunning ideas of a cheap source of suction cups?

THey are expensive for what they are, and they also dont let you easily adjust the angle of the camera...which is kinda important...will deffinately

Not a bad idea, but they are quite pricey...(considering suckers per pound)

Halfords - for sticking L plates on - you'll get around 4 for £2 (plus a couple of L plates!

Don't think I would trust a camera to these. Why not use a magnetic welding clamp. machine Mart do ver powerful ones at a good price, and they
switch on and off!

A magnetic welding clamp would make a pretty mess of my very well cared for bodywork...
Its only a tiny little £30 bullet camera...it doesnt weigh much, and provided I use enough suckers as failsafes, it should be ok...But I will be doing
some testing on the finish article as soon as I find some damn suckers!
