I noticed that the x50 will hang unless the unit is squared up against the windshield. There are two hard plastic "nubs" that will rub against the windshield. Do I have to pull the detector away from the windshield and simply bend the bracket to "level" the detector? Or is it supposed to be squared against the windshield?
Beltronics used to have a very good windshield/visor combo bracket that had a rubber nub to reduce the effect of vibrations on the detector itself. It seemed like when Escort and Beltronics merged, the Bel units had to change brackets to become uniform with Escort.
I would expect that the plastic casing would resonate or be affected by road vibration more with the x50 mount. Has anyone had any x50's fail or give the Self-Cal/Service Required message AND used the suction cup mount with the radar detector squared up against the windshield?
