Best radar detector with dash mount
In California radar detectors are legal, but not if mounted on a windshield. Are there good radar detector dash mounts that don't damage the 911 dash?

I have a Valentine1 so just using the one they sell. The visor is slightly angled, so lately I've had a tiny wedge between the clip and the visor to keep the detector level (though I haven't noticed any difference when it's not level, regarding detection range)
True, I just think after using a visor clip for 10+ yrs I'm used to it, and prefer that mounting position over options. It's easy, doesn't block my view, and is super hidden when parked.

Many road miles using an Escort 360c on a Blendsmount mirror mount. I have lost count of the saves. Completed a 10K, 28 state road trip this summer without a stop. I have used Escort detectors since the 80s without a single ticket. What more can I say?

When I used to live in CA, I mounted my V1 to the rear view mirror stalk via a Blendmount and hardwired it into the map lights. Can also hardwire to fuse panel with a Add-A-Circuit and tuck the cable between the a-pillar and windshield.
