Default Placement advice? BMW X3

Dear radar and laser friends,

I need some advice on a different way of mounting my jamming heads. I posted a picture of my mount so that readers could see where they are and where I would like them to be. Currently, they are mounted using the kit that was included. I would like to use some double sided mounting tape to place them on the bottom of the white part, rather than have them mounted using the kit on the top of the black part.

The only problem is: I measured the angle of the bottom of the white part, and it is pointing up about 5 degrees, which means the heads will be shooting up 5 degrees when I need them to be pointing 100% level to the road.

So I am asking for any suggestions you might have.

Oh yeah, the reason I need to change the way they are mounted is because they aren't staying level. The grip of the screws isn't tight enough, and no matter how tight I try to make them, the heads are still moving over the course of a few days driving. Also, my car going through the car wash moves them a lot as well. I had them mounted once using sticky tape, and it they never moved. I would need to tear them which off, which was difficult because of the tape I used.

Thanks

P.S. I am thinking about getting 2 more heads because of my massive front end.... mounting advice on it as well?? Thank you.

in the spots in white will be good to mount,also if you can mount vertical in the grill that would be great .good luck with your setup . if you wanted you could mount blinders under the plate and mount Li heads in grill.

RadarRob, I do believe your arsenal of Radar & Lidar equipment exceeds what most Pd's have on hand. Certainly more diverse! posted by Nine_c1
