Default Blendmount for radar detector

Does anyone have a blendmount for their 971? I want to order one but mind is in the shop and can't see it for a couple weeks. Just trying to figure out which to order. I have a turbo s e hybrid 2018. Thanks!

I have a BlendMount, I used on my 997 S. They make so many variations for so many different vehicles, you should get a picture of the mirror pedestal from the side view. Email the image(s) to the company tech support department and they will suggest the correct version. Then let me know, cause I will need one on my '17 4S!

BTW, are you a dentist?

Yeh I had one for 991.2 (and our raptor and navigator lol) but let it go with the car...probably should have kept it lol. The car is in the shop and I won't be able to see it for a couple weeks so that's why I was asking. On their site, they have 3 options for the e-hybrid version so I'm just going to make a guess. And yes, I am a dentist. You?

Just be careful if the car has the thermal insulated glass the location the blend mount sits will not work. If you don’t have the thermal glass you will be just fine. Congrats on the new ride!

He speaks the truth - this bit me so I had to go with a different detector (remote detector)...

This is the Blendmount on my 970 and hard wire kit for a Radenso Pro. Used small multimeter to find 12v tap in mirror. The decorative mirror bracket cover right behind the mirror is two pieces and I broke a tab removing it but OEM clamshell was <$20 (used black Gorilla tape till the part came in). Hardest part was figuring out how to lower the upper lighting console (unclips and is hinged nearest the mirror) so you can find the 12v taps points. Randy/Alabama
