New Escort Mount Pictures

I got mine yesterday. Haven't had a chance to demo it. Are y'all saying the angle isn't adjustable

No, it's still adjustable, but just to a lesser degree than is the older mount.

OK, thanks. I assume adjustment is accomplished by sliding the bracket in/out of the detector's slot??

Exactly. The less sloped the windshield, the closer to the windshield the RD should be placed on the mount.

They need to make wider mount and Use Larger Suction Cup,like Whistler SE mount....

No, I hate the Whistler suction cups they are huge and look bulky. I wish I could use the Escort mount for the 690.

Exactly the opposite in my opinion.

plus whistler Mount has Rubber Buffer,,Whistler mount/suction sups are superior to escort mount/suction cups. IMO

I agree...I already checked to see if I could use my Whistler XTR-690SE mount with my Escort 8500....NO!

I better hold on to all my old metal mounts then in case this one breaks.


Unless the new ones hold so well I don't have to resort to such trickery just to keep the RD from becoming a projectile?

Tell me about your setup please because I have those crappy dots on my windshield too.
