I purchased one of their mounts recently for my C6Z to go with my Escort 8500 X50, and am really pleased with it. It is a more expensive mount, but its built very well, and very adjustable. I also purchased one of their HardTap (hard wiring kits), and am pleased with that as well -- it plugged into the wiring harness of my mirror, and was an easy install overall.

I just bought a visor mount and invisicord package, but now I'm trying to decide if the blendmount is worth the extra cost over the visor mount for my escort redline.

It's really hard to press the release button with the visor mount because I cant fit my finger inbetween the mount and the top of the detector. The position right uner the mirror makes it easier to see too.

Ordered my Blendmount and Wire Tap late afternoon on Monday, got it Wednesday! You guys rock.

Installed last night and all I can say is Wow! I wasn't super thrilled about spending 120.00 for a radar mount, but this thing fits perfect and holds the detector rock steady. Couldn't be happier.

Thanks Bill....Glad you like it...

When you see the Blendmount, it is a very nicely done mount. When you think about the cost to produce, design, and the materials used it is probably worth every cent. I was skeptical also when I first decided to offer this product but once I installed it in my Vette I was 100% sold.

What are your thoughts? Worth it, or over priced?

Thanks for the post Bill,

Jim

Hey Jim,

Just received my Blendmount for my Valentine. Looks real nice.

But, I received the wrong Mirror Tap cord. It is too short. I sent you an email.

Thanks,

Peter

We've been selling them for a little over a month now, and they're being as well received as the 9500ix. With that in mind, they seemed like a perfect match, so here it is, a BlendMount/Escort 9500ix package deal.



By ordering these items together in this bundle you're getting both of them at less than the MSRP cost of the Escort Passport 9500ix alone, and at $20 less than if you purchased them separately on our already discounted website! What you're getting, at those great prices, is one of the best radar and laser detectors on the market anywhere, and the perfect companion piece for it to give it a great, low-profile, easy installation.

Every single employee here at SouthernCarParts uses the 9500ix, and a lot of us have started moving towards using the BlendMount as well. If that's not a glowing recommendation for these products, I don't know what is!

So, we're happy to offer this new discounted bundle for the Escort 9500ix, BlendMount Corvette Rear View Mirror Radar Detector Mount, BlendMount Mirror Tap, and more!

I love the idea but what do you do w/ the cord?

Did I miss a good solution to that?

Yup...The "Blendmount mirror tap" is the short wiring harness that taps into the molex plug on the back of the mirror. Everything is real clean; finally got around to installing mine this past weekend.
