Vava Dash Cam mount? {Necropost}
1I bought one of those Vava dash cams here on Meh a while back for my mom to use in her car. She loves it and it has come in handy several times, but the plastic mount that attaches it to the windshield just broke (plastic inside the suction cup attachment snapped). Is there any way I can obtain a replacement mount? Unfortunately the camera is next to useless without a way to mount it.
Here is the link to the former deal:

I have this exact problem with this exact camera. We have it dangling from our rear view mirror with a rig of hair ties and other stuff we found laying around the car.
Some of those Mehtizens with more time and money that me have purchased 3D printers; sounds like there’s a market for replacement parts
There’s a link in the former deal referencing a one year warranty. Did you try contacting the manufacturer? If you think the mount from the dash cam below would fit, I’ll send it to you. It’s only 720P, but has some similar specs as yours if you want the whole darn thing. I got it in an IRK and haven’t used it.
@heartny That would be fantastic! The mounts appear to be the same.
@PooltoyWolf Cool! Whisper me your mailing info and I’ll get it out to you this weekend.
@heartny Thank you so much!
The same thing happened to me, I just used gorilla glue and it’s stayed on for over 4 months and no signs of falling
@maidenhell I was ready with that as a backup maneuver, just in case!
There are dashcam mounts available on the e auction site. One type is a ring which mounts on the post of the rearview mirror. That is MUCH stronger and more stable. Search for “Rearview mirror bracket holder mount for dash cam”. Make sure you can use your existing attachment with the “foot” that fits in the camera. Otherwise there are other dashcam mounts including replacements for the lousy suction cup mount and they’ll show up on the same page.
I along with my son found a solid solution for this mount problem. No 3m no glue just a solid repair on the mount. Feeling so accomplished l.
