    I don't know where you're looking but this email there is no contact us link all that happens when you click on the provided link you sent it goes to the time time for um web page beginning but even there it has no contact us link. I would provide a picture of both screens that I took but it won't let me attach a picture to this email to show you that there is no contact us at the bottom of either page... I wish it was much simpler to get in touch with somebody from the company but I understand some big companies use it is a cost saver but it sure aggravates the consumer.. so instead of having to go through all this why don't you just provide me with a phone number I can call or an email or something like that since nothing else is in existence....

    Hello,
    I am new to this forum having only recently purchased a Bandit Camera. The rattle is very pronounced whatever I mount the camera to. It is definitely caused by excessive play in the rear mounting ring and so I have requested a clip. In the meantime I have used a work around to eliminate the rattle and it works well so I thought I would share it with you.
    I used a soft foam earplug and cut it in half along its length. Trimmed it so it is approx 1cm long. I then squished it flat and using an old plastic knife (liberated from works Cafeteria) pushed it between the mount plate and camera body (at the rear). Bingo ! rattle eliminated. Also, it does not vibrate out even when on a mountain bike handlebar on rough terrain.

    Your viewing the forum on a mobile device, right? On the mobile version there's indeed no footer but you can access the support pages through the question mark on top of each page.

    I've just updated our FAQ about this also to reflect the current flow when contact Customer Service.

    @ Wide_Dog: Welcome to the forum! Please, contact Customer Service. They can provide you with the anti-rotation clip to get this problem sorted :D

    Cheers, Mikko

    Hi Mikkok, Thanks. I had requested a clip last week and it arrived yesterday. It works beautifully. Many thanks :-)

    I placed a thin rubber band as a washer over the bat-stick. Then when locking the bat-stick in place, the rubber band/washer is sealing between the bat-stick and the round body bracket of the rotating mount. It had to be quite thin to fit. Picked up a bag of them at a craft store for a few cents. Chose a white one to match. Works better than the anti-rotation clip. Stops any rattle as well. Looks perfect. Highly recommend this fix.

    Just wondering if this "Anti vibration clip is going to be made available as an accessory.
    I have recieved one and it looks very flimsy. Also it does not completly eliminate the vibration.
    I have my tom tom bandit fastened to the fairing of my CBR1100XX. The clip is only ok upto
    about 30mph. Above that the rattling/vibration becomes increasingly audible until it is too
    intrusive.
