Review on πŸ”§ Mirror Mount Bracket for Beltronics Radar Detectors - Beltronics RX65 STI Magnum, GX65 (3001001B) with Radar Mount by Will Schimmel

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good product but no new goods received.

I received the metal detector mount and when I opened the small white box I was immediately disappointed that it was clearly not a new item due to the many scratches everywhere and the location of only a few screws on the mount and others separately in a small bag that looked very strange. However, I mounted it to my rearview mirror as I already had an appointment on site to connect the power cord for my detector to the car the next morning and I wanted to see how the mount would hold up and look. for information on how long the power cord must be. The mount installs very easily with a modicum of common sense and so far feels very secure and solid. The detector does not jump or vibrate, although my car has stiffer suspension and so can be a bit harsh at times due to vibration. The real test will be when the car has some time to sit and bake in the South Florida sun and heat to see if the thumbscrew loosens or anything else. If your rearview mirror lever is moved to adjust the mirror itself, make sure the mirror is adjusted properly for your viewing angle before attempting to adjust the detector mounting position, as any subsequent movement of the mirror adjustment lever will be discarded. Your positioning, angle and direction of the detector. Because of this, getting everything even and perfectly aligned took the longest time. I don't know if all rearview mirrors are adjustable with the entire arm moving, or if most are adjustable just for the mirror itself. So if more than one driver needs to adjust the mirror frequently, this should be taken into account.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty
Cons
  • Damaged
