click for fullsize

this i must say is my finest craftsmanship ever …

notice the b-pillar duct tape, its a single real seatbelt, so we just pulled it tight and taped the belt to the pillar to hold it “locked” then taped the tripod to the seat and seatbelt to keep it steady

1 tripod leg is on either side of the seat near the seatbelt pints, the 3rd leg is fully extended the belt / tape is pinning it against the front edge of the seat

Dude, please just buy a bogen mount, or some ratchet straps and anchor points on your rear floor before you hurt yourself when the camera comes loose.
