I used it in my car but for a different detector, works great, this thread will show you what wires to tap into in the wiring connector on back of the mirror. https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...lendmount.html With tapping into these wires, the detector will only have power when the car is running (no power in accessory mode)

I did but i did not like it. It stuck out too low and far back from the bottom if the mirror. I changed to the escort windshield mount, it tucks higher and more forward under the mirror. And i still use the mirror tap to power it.

It’s been a few years, but I used the Blendmount BNR-2006 for a Uniden R3 and tapped with the MirrorTap MTX-1010. Super easy.

I use it w/ my Uniden R3. Very sturdy mount. Hardwiring is easy.

I have it on mine
It's tight and really hard to access the top of the unit but is a neat compact mount. I ran my power source thru the window post to the fuse panel that was a pain
