Show your GoPro
I picked up a GoPro Hero HD this weekend. The mounting options for these are almost too versatile. I know there are several people on these forums that have GoPros. I would like to see how/where you mounted it and a photo or video from the GoPro. Also, if you mention which mount you used that would be fantastic.

Ouch. I was watching some videos on Youtube where they were mounted underneath. I couldn't think of a safe place to mount it. I doubt they will replace it under warrenty, but you may want to call. Did you SD card survive?

I use the suction cup mount typically on the window or on the body somewhere. Don't mount it on the hood, it vibrates way to much. I have been toying around with some ideas to attach to the bumper but I have nto come up with anything yet.

I mount mine using a Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp directly to my bumper. You can see some videos I took with it this past Friday here: http://smu.gs/iOH6S9

Only gotcha I've found so far is that the standard battery only gets you about 2.5 hours of video time. I've added the 2nd battery backpac and get 4+ hours, which is nice.
To be honest, videos of jeeping are just 'okay'. I've had more fun attaching the camera to my dogs collar and seeing a different perspective of life.
