Is there a Windshield Camera tripod for my camera?

[Klint]

i have a question for you guys. I'm using a Sony Cybershot to get videos while driving with other celicas to the meets and i wanted to use a suction mount so i can attach the camera to the Windshield. The only problem is that the camera doesnt have the screw in tripod under the camera..

However, my other camera does. ( how ironic huh? $200+ camera doesnt have a tripod screw and a $60 camera does.. ) I dont want to use my other camera since it doesnt record sound.
Anyways is there a Suction mount around for this type of camera?

This is what i found so far.. for the other camera that does not record audio:

Anyone point me in the right direction to find one that works for the cybershot?

my friend went to home depot bought a piece of wood and cut it the dimension of the bottom of the camera and had the wood fitted with a torqued hole to screw into one of those suction cup the he just simple put the camera on the little piece of wood and secured it with two un-doable zip ties..:shrugs:

i just told him for all that trouble i would have bought a little video recorded they sell basic simple hidef video recorders that have simple mounts for cars..

I've never seen a camera that comes like that. I suggest you contact Sony and be like wtf how the hell can i mount this on a tripod the right way?
