went to home depot and found a 12 ft adjustable extension painter’s pole for around $18.
use a metal filer to trim down the threads on utility pole. took a good 30-40mins to shave with a metal filer.
bought a vivitar tripod from brandsmart (academy has them for $9.99) and removed mount from tripod. it took some work, but just be careful with it. the mount is clipped to the tripod so gently work it to get it off.
the mount fits snug onto utility pole head. tighten pressure knob on camera base and be careful as to not overtighten – plastic camera mount may crack.
now, simply prop it in your flush mount rod holder behind your seat and start filming!
