What's this test fitting chatter?

Had mine two years now. Is there are design change?

Had mine behind the seats of the Reserve S (S3) the other week.

During our holiday in UK, we visited Roger Morris at home in Wales. I ordered a roof some time ago and he offered to come and visit him.
We did a testfit whith one of the 1st prototypes. In general it was ok but I did not like the folds in the fabric on the passenger side.
I saw you have the same on your car. He said he made some improvements since this prototype and asked if we could to a testfit with the latest one supplied to Niiige. So that's what we plan to do ;-)

see you soon !!

Pete - I've got a mount inside but got a lot of reflection from the dash in the windscreen. Where I've mounted it now eradicates the glare but clearly increases the risk of loss/damage

Yes I am worried about the risk of loss or damage and do think its a wild claim by Go Pro that the suction cup is good for 150mph!! Having said that.... they must be confident that its secure. I drove the car with it stuck down near the fogs round town, and it stayed the distance, but like you, I was ultra wary of it dropping off or getting wrecked. I guess there is only one way to find out......

Put some electrical tape around the camera casing so the lens is in a sealed enclosure

... to anyone following you! Having said that, as Pete mentioned, they've been tested to 150mph but track day organisers still wont let you use one without it being tethered in some way in case mount does give way. Sounds like a perfect excuse to fit a roll bar to fix it to!

Safe trip boys & girls, see you tomorrow @ Reims pits ;-)

[SJS357]

Have a safe trip & a great time guys and girls (Sure you will)

Simon.

Tether it over the top to the rearview mirror Max.

Or to the other GoPro mount inside may be a better idea.

[magpies]

have a great time you lot

[TVRHasgo]

Have fun drive safe and post lots of pictures for those of us who are not 'On Tour'.

[TurboTony]

At the tunnel for the 15.50 train, but 30 minutes delay resulting from an earlier incident. Torrential rain on the drive down.

[TopVpowerRoadste]

Have plenty of fun everyone.

[mk1fan]

Driver's seat fitted. Number plate light fixed. Windscreen cleaned. Fuel tank filled. One more little sleep before heading to Calais.

[tinks v8S]

Have a good trip wish could have joined you all for a few beers but off to turkey

[mk1fan]

Missed the train for a couple of non-TVR related reasons. Front of the queue for the next one. Should still be in the car park, fuelled, for 8:15.
