    screw the mirror add-on
    the Blendmount is not worth copying, again

    make a bracket that mounts above[before?] the visor-clips(on the same bolt) and then positions the detector between them, over the rear-view mirror

    OR
    for vehicles with no space over the RVM,

    a bracket, attached above[before] the visor-clip, that holds the detector right in front of the visor(clip), allowing the visor to still be used

    I'd actually suggest Dual Lock with a high temp adhesive -- particularly for hotter climates like down here in Houston.

    "OldGoat" Can you please specify more what do you mean? I'm trying to imagine your idea but I can't. Valentine already have a visor mount bracket.

    what I am referring to is the attachment that the visor snaps into, when it is in the 'unused' position
    Not mounting to the visor itself

    Correction: Plain Velcro on the sticky side will not hold to plastic in high heat. Scotch (Scotchmate?, 3M)makes a heavy duty Velcro for GPS/electronics devices to be stuck in the auto/outdoors, saw it in Walley World. Has anybody tested that product? It may be dual lock, looks like fingers on both sides. As the outstanding fellow Texas member stated, a glue of some sort maybe needed also.

    Okay.Now I got you. This is a great idea. I will need to make a bracket that will go forward more so you still be able to "open" the visor all the way. I will think about but right now I have another project so that one is next on my list.

    Negative. I refuse to disable a visor. Read why HERE

    Temporarily blocking the view of the detector would be reasonable to me
    Just needing your visor should be cautionary and cause a reduction in speed

    as long as the visor can be lowered to perpendicular-to-road, I'm happy.

    you'll need my address for the Royalty Cheques
