I'm keen as mustard for am adapter ring for the RVC.

Hit the same hurdle in my Mum's Polo.

[LunchboxVRS]

Making the bracket by hand takes a fair while so im looking at getting them cut on a bigger scale using a water jet cutter from a local fabricator. what is the max price people are willing to pay? dont want to get in to deep and find there $100 to pump out each (as an over example) and members are not willing to pay that much.

Hi I would like to buy a adaptor plate or if you arent able to go in to manufacture, how many degrees out is the badge is it 45 degrees . id love to fit the RVC to my sons polo any help would be great TIA

theres been a bot of interest in the RVC bracket. Its going to be a little while off any production of QTY due to work. so here is some pics just to let you know it hasnt come to a stand still. This is the second prototype as the originaly i copied involved cutting the hatch for it to work and pushed it further back into the lid.

The camera is removed from the badge via 4 screws. the bracket goes over badge and is secured clmping the badge and sealing it on the lid. once adjusted so it sits in the centre the camera is then mounted back on. As i said its a prototype. the production models will be trimed u[ neater and hopfully podercoated depending on cost.

Hi Lunchbox,

VERY GOOD ! I hate to hassle but my boy is desperate for the adaptor ,His car will be here in around 3 or 4 weeks ,I have the Local retrofit guy coming round to fit RNS-510 H version along with the GPS version off the roof whip ,He said he will wire in the RVC and leave it to be finished off by me when the adaptor is available . He has a little Polo R line in silver and this will just finish it off nice.

I managed to get my bracket to a laser cutter today. But I was then informed 30 min later i now have to go away for work for three months overseas. There was no time frame as too when they will be finished and as I'm leaving on Monday I would say I won't have before then. I will controll orders via computer but won't have accesse all the time. I will get my wife to post them out but I ask you be patient as she dosnt go to town every day. I'll will post out cost when there done. First batch is only about twenty I will do more when there is still interest after I return.

Hi Lunchbox ,

I would like one ASAP how much $ do you use Paypal ? I can pay now This is the best news I have had in Days , i just ordered the camera kit .

Did you have to remove any plastic from the camera housing , I was looking and thought maybe as there appeared to be lugs that maybe hook behind where it screws on.

Thankyou
