BlendMount Your Valentine One Radar Detector. Custom Mount for Your V1.

BlendMount Your Valentine One Radar Detector. Custom Mount for Your V1. Review



BlendMount Your Valentine One Radar Detector. Custom Mount for Your V1. Feature

  • Mount Your Valentine One WITHOUT The Suction Cups.
  • Securely Attaches Your Valentine One Onto The Stem Of Your Rear View Mirror.
  • Multiple Adjustments Allow For The Perfect Placement Of Your V1.
  • A High Quality Mount Constructed Of Durable, Lightweight, Black Anodized Aluminum.
  • Looks Factory-Installed !!!
When we designed the BlendMount for the V1 Radar Detector (RD), quality and adjustability were our main objectives. We wanted to utilize the dead space between the back of the mirror and the windshield. With the multiple adjustments we designed, the perfect RD placement can be achieved. Even before receiving your BlendMount, first Adjustment is to reposition your Mirror Stem so it is perpendicular to your Windshield by using the Windshield Pivot at the end of your Cylindrical Stem (see pics). Next adjustment is to also reposition the Stem as High as possible using the same Windshield Pivot. Both these adjustments ensure that your RD will point straight out the Windshield, and minimize any View Obstruction. Then simply readjust the Mirror using the Mirror Pivot only, taking care not to disturb the newly acquired Stem Position. Once you receive and install your BlendMount, there are other adjustments that allow the perfect placement of your RD, such as (1) Stem Slide, (2) Hinge Swing, and (3) Vertical Slot (see pics). All these adjustments are clearly described in our Installation Instructions and literally allow for the Perfect Placement of your RD. Get rid of those failing/falling suction cups and Clean Up your windshield !!!
