Easy & Clean Radar Install

Thanks for the DIY. The invisicord worked perfect!
Has anyone with the Mirror Mount Escort setup from "countryjoy", listed on the DIY, had problems with the radar bouncing and rattling when on rough road. With the suction cup mount, the windshield acts as a stabalizer against the back of the detector. I love the look of this mirror mount, but there is just too much excess noise coming from my detector. Has anyone come up with a remedy for this?

Just installed my invisicord and blendmount. Zero drama - the invisicord leads easily plugged into the Homelink mirror harness.

My Escort Redline fired up first time. I did take an extra minute and used a level to set the the blendmount angles with the detector installed. I also routed the harness to the left side of the mirror post.

Both products are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Maybe try some foam padding where metal hits metal?
