This video is still relevant as I just got back into the GoPros after losing my original hero 3 racing after the suction cup lost its grip. Bought the snap mounts and did not think of those little tabs that stick out that prevent the wire from being plugged in. Big thanks for making this video! Definitely going to try and order another snap mount so I can cut it up and not leave a bad review for my lack of thinking lol.
I can see where that little modification could make things easier for someone with a GoPro.
Well done, Jeff.
thanks, it does make it work much better!

Man I just discovered these and was bummed because I knew the media mod wouldn’t work with it…then THIS video! Thanks man
Glad it helped you!
Great mount, highly recomended! I got mine with snap mat. Put it on top of the hood drove my car about 120-160 kph and its perfectly fine!
That's great info, I may have to give that a try.
Great modification. Just what I was looking for!
Eddie glad you liked it, I use this set up every time I grab my Go Pro, its so helpful and easy to use.
Great job with the mod, I was so happy to see you can still use the external mic jack. I'll go ahead and order the snap mount because of this video!
I am glad it helped you out!
Gotta love the Snap mounts 👍
They do make life a lot easier going from mount to mount, its a great product!
Thank you for this content. I am always interested in the tech details of how you are putting together your video.
Dan, I am glad to do it, and figured since Car Guys like to modify their cars, what not modify the camera equipment too!
Luckily they now have an updated version on Amazon …SNAP Mounts for Media Mod
Agreed. I think Snap Mounts was made aware of folks doing this mod and they offered a solution. Thanks for watching
Looking into the Rode mic myself! Good info here, Jeff! 👍👍
Thanks, the Rode mic works great with the Go Pro!
Great video! Very helpful advice.
Glad it was helpful!
Just saw that they have now a SNAP MEDIA MOD.
I did hear that, I will have to check it out, thanks for watching.
They've learned from you!
Yes I saw that!! I just some of the royalties from it! 😂 thanks for watching!
Can you connect USB-C POWER IN to the Media Mod with the Modified Snap Mount attached?
Yes you can, I have not do it, but there is a USB-C input, its the middle plug in on the Media Mod
