I am looking for a good GO PRO camera and mount for the next time I get pulled over from the patrol. Is there anything out there that has a good mount and easy to use? Also, looking for something small to possible not detect???
Would also like to know of best place to purchase as well?

Why do you want to record them? Or are you going to use it all the time?

BEST BUY black edition, wide angle, easy suction cup mount will hold at high speeds!
Very clear. Only issue is with the full water proof case the sound is not all that great. Have to use the skeleton case for better sound pick up. Especially from a distance.

Bingo!! Exactly what I have and where I bought it from. The camera is awesome!! My only complaint is battery life is horrible. I think get about 20 minutes of record time before battery is done.

This is a MUST have in my opinion! Adds to the time usage greatly. I have done 45 mintues easy.
My one complaint about all the batteries is that is seems like they do not keep the charge when stored.
I have charged them at the end of the day to only find them slightly low the next time I went to use it
I plan on buying a few more back up batteries, just the hard thing in charging them seperatly.

For the money it has pretty solid reviews and does not need an external case for waterproofing (sound is much better). Also has image stabilization and is a great price. I'm looking at getting one soon (primarily becuase I want the image stabilization and auto-rotation). Also has better battery life. I think they have this one on sale at Tiger Direct for even cheaper than Amazon.

I wasn't aware of the bigger battery. Ill be getting one of those for sure. The battery situation reminds me of my first digital camera in the late 90's early 2000. Batteries lasted minutes from just picture taking. Lol

with the GoPro 3's now out, check out your local craigslist for 2's. They are cheap. I just bought a complete motorsports package from a guy locally last week for $100. He had the chesty, suction cup and both clamp on mounts as well.
you can add the wifi back to a 2 and control it from your wifi apply product.
I have 3 now. 2 we place fore and aft on the windshield and the other the kids wear on the chesty when playing int he water.
