I started building a really quick and dirty bracket using the bench seat headrests. I just used a long piece of wood, and "drilled" holes for the headrest posts and the camera ( drilled at an agle to keep the camera focused where i wanted it).

Most cameras should be light enough that you could probably mount it off of just one seat, but might need to figure something to keep it from easily twisting/rocking ( weld some tubular spacers, maybe a rear bar or maybe just the headrest pushed down tight). You could even mount it to BOTH seats (via headrests).

Actally, it might be best to mount it to the passenger seat for solo runs, as the driver's seat might flex and move around with you in it...

Perhaps a single rear bar wedged between the rear seat cushions would be enough to stabilize twisting. Probably wouldn't need to bolt it in...
