Mounting a Passport
All - I've got an 8500 X50 that I'm going to mount up high between the mirror and the visor. Do the suction cups stay put? Great Lakes Trophies told me they have a mount that should fit. Has anyone tried it? I appreciate any and all ideas?
Thanks for your input.

I use the suction cups and they work fine. Try it before you spend $20.00 on the aftermaket bracket. I would also mount the radar under the mirror. It should get better range for radar coming up behind you. -Ed

I have a bel rx65. the suction cups have worked well if I do not try to pull them off. Ecklers has a long attachment bolt that attaches to the RV mirror that I am looking at ordering. I attached the sution mount to the window to the left of, and level with the mirror, and remove the nuti from the mount when I park. The hanging cord does not bother me.
