Abstract: A vehicle mirror and camera mounting system includes a camera mounting bracket that includes an injection molded bracket formed by injection molding a polymeric molding resin. A camera, when its camera module is attached at the camera mounting bracket at the vehicle windshield, has a field of view through the vehicle windshield. The camera mounting bracket includes a mirror attachment portion configured for attaching an interior rearview mirror assembly thereat. At least one cover element is attached at (i) the camera mounting bracket, (ii) the camera module and/or (iii) the mirror mount so that the camera module and the camera mounting bracket are not readily viewable to a person viewing the construction from inside the vehicle. The mirror mount includes an electrical connector for electrical connection to (i) a connector at the camera module or (ii) a wire harness of the vehicle, with the connection hidden from view.

Abstract: A vehicle mirror and camera mounting system includes a windshield attachment member configured to adhesively attach at a vehicle windshield and a camera mounting bracket configured to attach at the windshield attachment member. The camera mounting bracket is an injection molded bracket that is formed by injection molding a thermoplastic reinforced polyamide polymeric molding resin. With the windshield attachment member adhesively attached at the in-cabin surface of the windshield, the camera mounting bracket, with a camera module attached thereat, is attached at the windshield attachment member. The camera mounting bracket includes a mirror attachment portion for attaching an interior rearview mirror assembly. The mirror mount includes an attaching portion that is configured to insert at least partially into a socket of the mirror attachment portion of the camera mounting bracket to attach the interior rearview mirror assembly at the camera mounting bracket.
