Like others are saying, this is head and shoulders above the suction cup mounts for in-car footage.
The suction cups are great for getting certain odd angles, assuming you can find a solid mount point. On the other hand, this guy can get some great angles that the suction cup mounts generally can not, and seems to produce a greatly steadier shot. Because of the headrest mounting position, the angle also feels nicely cinematic -- practically a classic over-the-shoulder shot.
This thing feels solid, which probably also helps with steadying any latent vibrations. The majority of it is made of metal, with the exception of a few minor plastic parts. It tightens around your headrest via a small hex bolt, which makes attaching and detaching a bit of a process, but not too much (and also likely steadies the shot). The only case where I've had an issue with this mount is in vehicles that employ a novel headrest design, or merge the headrest with the seat (e.g. the seats in Tesla cars).
With several pivot points along it's length, it's very simple to adjust the positioning of the go pro and get a variety of angles. With the wide angle of the Go Pro, it captures driver, passenger, and center cluster, with enough headroom to also get a bit of outside-the-windows context.
Worth it for the price if you're looking to get solid in-vehicle shots.
Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2018
The modular assembly means you can remove a section to make a shorter mount - I really like this option. Honestly, I wasn't too sure how well the mount would stay in place, being anchored to just one post on the headrest, but it's solid - enough so the camera will not move, or vibrate as long as the seat is still, but not so rigid as to become a safety concern in a collision. If you put enough force on it, it will rotate, but this requires considerable effort. Folding the seat forward and returning upright has never caused the camera position to move over several days of use.
Tip: if you're concerned about scratching the finish of your headrest support post, cut two pieces of adhesive-backed 1/8" foam rubber sheet to the size of the mounting clamp and apply to both inside surfaces of the clamp. Tighten the four screws until the mount is solid. This won't be quite as rigid as without the foam, but more than enough to support a GoPro with no issues.
Also after I was finished with track day Instead of taking it all apart and off my headrest, I was able to pivot and turn it so that it’s 100% out of the way for day to day use but I could swing it around and mount a camera again in less than a minute if I want/need to and that’s been really cool. Overall I would buy this again and recommend for anybody doing track days especially

Only brought it out for one track day so far, but the video recorded with it was very stable. Easy to set up, with several articulating joints to get the positioning that you want. Very solid metal build, so no worries about breaking it.
Previously had tried a GoPro suction mount which was decent and will still have it's uses, but this headrest mount will definitely be my go-to when recording video. Also gets you that great over-the-shoulder view, which I couldn't do with the suction mount in my car.
