Hi Giles,

You could always make one. Put a 1/2 - 1" deep groove in one board at 
one end, attach a 2nd board with a hinge, put a tripod screw 
somewhere (perhaps several places) and attach a tripod head. Depend 
on the camera/lens weight to keep it stable. Adjust the 2nd board's 
length or window height to level it.

This would be fast to remove & keep the camera/lens inside the car 
for discretion.
