Default Escort MAX 360 mounted on Rearview Mirror

This is the new Escort MAX 360 mounted on my GT3's rearview mirror. Wiring and mount from blendmount.com.

Part number ID-POR-002 for the mount. It was $130

Radar detector and mount work great.

Not affliated with any company.

Directional arrows I believe. Is the detector easily removable from the mount.?

The MAX 360 has 2 main new features. Directional arrows and better signal processing to weed out active cruise control false signals.

It is a bit harder than the standard mount but I asked for my room to get my meat paws in there. No problem removing and mouthing.

Do you get any rattling when it's mounted to the mirror like that?

None so far. I will try to take a pic of the mount.

$400 - Yikes.

Its a fairly easy DIY. All you really need is a $5 Add a Fuse, and run the wire along the headliner and A pillar.

I did mine with the 9500ix getting power from the mirror. I paid $75 for installation of blend mount and mirror power kit at a car stereo place.

Here is a better picture of the detector on the mount. The power cable is routed directly to the fuse box.

Also the MAX360 gave plenty of warning for Laser / LIDAR when the car ahead of us was tagged.




No directional feed for lasers.

I have been looking to upgrade my 9500 to the MAX360. I have the blendmount for the 9500, any idea if it would work with the 360?
