    Default Suction cup :(

    So over a year since I had my 690SE it looks like the suction cups are finally starting to go. I've tried several things to revive them but now its failing more frequently than before. Anyone have an idea how to convert an escort supercup to fit a whistler? I'm open to some creative ideas...

    I tried almost boiling to ice cold and that only helped short term.

    Clean them with rubbing alcahol ! Whistler has the best suction cups in the industry so just order a whole pack for like 5 bucks
