Yep. There's a group from here and a group in Cairns. You tend to find 
cars stolen in Cairns dumped in Townsville and vice versa. Friend of 
mine had both their cars stolen while they were asleep overnight. They 
were found in Cairns.

I've had no problems with the mounts on the one's I have but do have one 
camera that has lost it's infrared ability. It was mounted inside my 
office where I have my servers etc and got a bit overheated so I guess 
heat affects them as well.
