07alloyGT Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 I was getting tired of dealing with the suction cup mount for my Valentine 1 & finally found something that is a whole lot better in my opinion. The site where I found them is: http://www.countryjoycrafts.com/ConnectorF...darDetector.htm In addition to the V1, they make them for the Escort & Bel radar detectors. The cost was about $50 (including shipping & insurance). I ordered it last Thursday (3/6/08) & received it today (3/10/08). It is machined aluminum (6061-T6 for you engineer types), anodized black with helicoil inserts for the screws (2 phillips head, 2 socket head). It took about 20 minutes to get it installed & adjusted. Here's all the parts included in the kit & the kit with the V! & the windshield mount with the suction cups removed Here's the mount installed on the rear view mirror post Here's the V1 installed The mount & V1 bracket stay installed all the time, but is not easily noticeable from outside the car because of the dark interior & the tinted glass. They work on a wide variety of vehicles as long as you have either a 3/4 inch or 23 mm diameter rear view mirror stem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFDRAFT Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 My Passport Solo is in my glovebox. With the instant-on radar they use here - and the fact that there's rarely anyone in front me - it won't do me much good. If anyone would like to buy it from me - shoot me a PM. I used it maybe 3 hours. Nice bracket, Kurt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
