Think your 5D is precious, try mounting 100+ pounds and several hundred thousand dollars worth of 35mm Pannavision camera on the side of your Holden.
The big brother version is called the Super Grip mount. A quick google search returns lots of links, such as:

Another method is to use a device called a Hostess Tray. Think of the tray you'd set on your car window at the drive-in burger joint, add a suction cup or two and come good, strong ratchet straps and you get the idea.
I'd still test it with something other than **MY** Nikon. anyone want to loan me their Canon? <<DUCK>>
