Default V1 Mount Problem

I have had my V1 for a month or so now and my only complaint is with the windshield mount. The suction cups work just fine and hold to the glass but the detector doesn't stay in the rails when I give it too much gas. The little hook doesn't grab on to the rivets on the detector so it just flies out. My buddy has one in his 350z and he mentioned his is extremely tight and doesn't budge in the bracket.

Anyone else had this? Am I doing something wrong or did I just get a bad windshield bracket?

Never had a problem with mine. I've recently switched to the Great Lakes Trophies visor mount as well and the bracket holds very firm.

Have had mine since 2002 and it's never slipped on me. Another bracket is indeed in order.
