Default Radar Mount (Cool)

Found this to mount radar detectors.

Can't post pics,

I like it! I am checking to see if it will work with the V-1, more to follow. I am also inquiring about a Group Buy as well.

I prefer my V1 to be stealth in the back ... out of sight for potential theives and cops.

$50 is a grip of cash for that thing too ....

I think I would paint the Z and put the OEM Z over it. That Z is a little fat.

Mike Peronek already makes an excellent mount for $20. Actually his looks a bit cleaner.

I have Peronek's mount for my V1. It's $30, but it's about the only one that will work for mounting a detector in a roadster.

Where did you buy that from, and is it hard to hardwire into the mirror?

I remember that I PMed MIKE3348 and he sent me his paypal information. I had the mount 2 days later. It's a simple 3 wire splice to hardwire into the mirror. You don't even have to take the mirror off.

Just ordered one from Mike.

Should I hardwire to the mirror or the fuse box? Some say don't do the mirror hardwire.

Default z mount

Hi
I'm the owner of the Z mount for Escorts. I see you guys are fudging about the price..........so I will make you all a deal. We will drop the price to $39.95. I hope enough of you want it so that the volume will make up for the price. There is a lot of work in this. It is not plastic. No this one won't ever go to $20!

thanks guys!
