Does anyone know if this will stick over the black dots above the RVM? It looks pretty heavy duty, just wondering if anyone has tried.

Nope mine fell off when I tried and that was before I put the rd on it.
Mine does hold firmly but the dots only cover the top 30% of the suction cup, the windshield covers the lower portion or roughly 70%.
I tried the 30% or less and it still fell off.Quote:

I would not mount any suction cup over the ceramic dots. It just asking for it to fall off. If you need to mount over the ceramic dots (like I did) modify your stock RD mount. I myself use "superlock fasteners" I purchased this at RadioShack. I copied it from this http://www.radardetector.net/forums/...-your-rvm.html
Sorry it didn't work for you. The superlock fasteners might be the way to go.Quote:

Seems to be the best place for it when using the supercup.
With the stock mount it will fit next to the RVM (left side) just nice but bounces a lot so that's why I bought the supercup.
I used this for a while but it fell apart after a month of use. That was with two hours of use per day. Poor quality. I replaced it with the BlendMount. So far it is much more stable.
There was a similar post on the Valentine section a short while ago - solution was to use thick shipping tape over dots to make a flat surface.

I just use the stock mount and leave it under my RVM. Not enough room above it and if I mount it above and to the left it points left instead of straight.
I put a tint strip over the dots and that works perfectly for me.
I finally put up my supercup with some superlock fastners on my tint and so far so good.
nice install
