Be happy to show you anytime. Fairly simple actually. I moved my cigarette ligher to the switch panel I made and am just using a dual-USB, stubby, lighter adapter. I then ran a 10 foot USB cable to the camera. I switched to the GoPro
Frame Mount since it has an open USB port on the side. I thought about opening a hole in the case it came with but I didn't want to ruin it for outside/wet usage.
If I had had more time I would have bypassed the cigarette ligher plug, broke apart the adaptor and ran the USB power directly to the camera. I would have added a power switch so I could charge the camera when I wanted (if car was on or off). Right now I just unplug the USB cable. May make these changes later when time permits.
I know there's some bespoke pre-GoPro Hero 3 adaptors that have power and camera on-off switches that one can mount. I haven't seen anyone hack the Hero 3 yet to support this.
And, BTW, sorry to hear about your run-in with the bushes. The picks of you and the misses looked great though!
