Just received my new Redline 360c today from Best Buy. It's got some weight to it.
I'm coming from older Redline and Uniden R3, With those units, I installed permanent mounts to the top driver corner portion of the windshield, close to headliner in my vehicles for a more stealthy install being that I live in Virginia. The metal bracket/mounts for those RD's are small and discrete. Never had to worry about LE spotting even when pulling up next to me.
I didn't realize the 360c only came with the mag mount with huge suction cup. I'm looking for an option that doesn't require the suction cup on the windshield. Appears I'm limited to the magnetic mount clip to secure the RD. Saw one on eBay "Escort EZ Mag Compatible Adhesive Mount for Escort MAX360C MAX 3 Radar Detector" but it's still bulky and looks like it would leave the RD hanging low from the mount.
I looked at the rearview mirror mounts in the past but that is not ideal for me, RD is quite noticeable. Also tried one of those sunglass visor organizers that had a pocket for RD. It was ok but not ideal, especially when I needed to use the sun visor.
Anyone comes across any other options, suggestions or ideas?
