Hey I have a Hero2 as well and have been trying to get that exact location for filming inside the car. Where exactly did you mount the camera and what did you use the GoPro suction mount? Thanks
When I first go the gopro, I tried using the adhesive mount on the center console in the back (right above the button for the center console door). Unfortunately, I did it wrong (see below) and the mount fell right off, so I decided to use the suction mount on my plexiglass wind blocker.

As you probably noticed, the suction mount vibrates like crazy. After some googling, I found out that for non glossy-smooth surfaces, you need to prepare the area by heating it up a bit, so I cleaned the area with acetone and used a hairdryer on the spot for about 30 seconds (and heated the mount itself for another 15) before sticking it on. I then let it sit for 24 hours without using it. It seems to have worked, because now it's rock solid.
