literally arrived today, 16 days to arrive, hope it works. even comes with its own 20mm hole saw...but it seems that there is a hole ready made

Yes - that's the problem with the Mk5 plate being so low and I cant think of a place higher up to mount a camera discreetly.

Yep - found that, its 19.6mm in diameter - perfect snug fit for mine - Any problem removing the clip and how was the camera angle there?
blingsta:
this one looks as though its slimline and discreet... not sure about the big nut and bolt though ! if the nut comes off, i would be looking to use double sided 3m tape to stick it on

That's over double the price of mine!
I am unsure when I will get round to installing mine, got several tasks lined up and this is low on the list - could be weeks or months!
Here's a picture to show the size:
