GoPro Mount for rollbar?

Just curious if anyone knows about a gopro mount that will fit on the stock rollbars behind the headrests. Seems like the easiest spot to mount one if I could find something that clamps around it and an attachment to send it out more towards the middle and adjust the angle. GoPro makes a rollbar mount but it looks to me like it won't fit due to the oblong shape of the stock bars.

GoPro makes a mount that is meant for a bicycle handlebar. It has a removable insert so you can fit it to multiple size bars. Since it has the GoPro brand name on the packaging it's ridiculously expensive. It was an impulse buy at Walmart for me. I used it in my experimental airplane on the fat black cylinder of a stabilus type gas strut that holds the canopy open. I also have lots of RAM mounts including the one shown by 808croc. It is less tidy looking but has a bigger range of sizes that it will fit. There's a seller on ebay ("landloop") who specializes in RAM mount products in Clermont, FL. I've bought tons of RAM stuff from them and they nearly always have the best prices.

I used a stick-on mount on the plastic shelf between the roll bars on my 981. The stick-on mount can be removed by applying heat with a hairdryer and leaves the original surface adhesive-free. It is very secure. I've been using it about a year now. Those adhesive mounts work fine on paint as well.

So I think it sounds like most people are mounting it between the seats, my car has the bose system though and there's a speaker box there so I don't have that little bar to mount to. These suggestions look great but I'm not sure they'll fit around the headrest hoops though. I guess I could take the speaker out for autocross or track days though.
