Very stable for Escort/Beltronics radar detectors, but your mirror shouldn't be TOO high!

That said it worked great on my 20th Honda 21CR barely clean -V year not to mess with the day / night lever under the mirror. If you have a tall mirror (or if you put a "wide" mirror adapter on top of the original mirror) this probably won't work because you don't have enough room to fit the radar detector into the mount. in other words, the detector plugs into your wide-angle adapter/mirror attachment). If you only have an OEM mirror, everything is fine. The small "lever" that pivots between the mirror shaft and the detector plate is about 1 inch long, which is barely enough for most cars. Installation is easy, a bit frustrating if you have big hands as it's quite tight in there. Be careful not to drop the screws. I found it easier to remove just one screw/bolt and leave the other screw/bolt almost completely out and slide towards the mirror shaft than removing both screws and trying to hold the two pieces together by inserting the screw/bolt (not easy , if you do this yourself if you don't use a clamp). All in all a good buy. I just wanted the little knob to be maybe 2 inches to leave some extra clearance between the mirror and the radar detector and allow the radar to recede a bit instead of sticking out 3 inches in front of the mirror.
