Car Camera Mounts for Secure Dash Cam Placement

Use the mount specified for your camera and place it high on the windscreen without blocking the driver's view. Adhesive pads are discreet; suction mounts are easier to move.

Car camera mounts determine whether footage stays steady and whether the camera remains safely positioned. The connector is often model-specific, so match the mount to the exact dash cam rather than judging by appearance alone.

Common questions

Questions before you buy

Where is the best place to mount a dash cam?

Usually high behind or close to the rear-view mirror, provided the lens has a clear road view and the unit does not obstruct the driver's vision.

Are adhesive dash cam mounts better than suction mounts?

Adhesive mounts are normally smaller and more permanent. Suction mounts suit drivers who move the camera, but require more space and regular security checks.

Can I mount a dash cam on the dashboard?

Only if the camera and mount support that orientation and the lens has an unobstructed view. Check that it cannot become loose or interfere with controls and airbags.

Why does my dash cam mount keep falling off?

Common causes include dirty glass, damaged adhesive, temperature changes or an incompatible pad. Replace consumable pads with the maker's specified part rather than adding an improvised fastener.
