Default Escort 9500ix and Blendmount Package

We love the Escort 9500ix here at Southern Car Parts. Since its release, the Passport 9500ix by Escort has been one of our personal favorite products, and has consistently been amongst our most well-reviewed.



Recently, we added a new product line to our catalog as well: the BlendMount line of radar detector mounts. We've been selling them for a little over a month now, and they're being as well received as the 9500ix. With that in mind, they seemed like a perfect match, so here it is, a BlendMount/Escort 9500ix package deal.



By ordering these items together in this bundle you're getting both of them at less than the MSRP cost of the Escort Passport 9500ix alone, and at $20 less than if you purchased them separately on our already discounted website! What you're getting, at those great prices, is one of the best radar and laser detectors on the market anywhere, and the perfect companion piece for it to give it a great, low-profile, easy installation.

Every single employee here at SouthernCarParts uses the 9500ix, and a lot of us have started moving towards using the BlendMount as well. If that's not a glowing recommendation for these products, I don't know what is!

So, we're happy to offer this new discounted bundle for the Escort 9500ix, BlendMount Corvette Rear View Mirror Radar Detector Mount, BlendMount Mirror Tap, and more!

For more information, and to order the bundle, just visit our website here: Escort 9500ix and BlendMount Radar Detector Complete Package

I ordered the other blendmount system a couple of months ago, the one where the main part of the mount clips onto your mirror and the rest of the system is put together off of it. This new set up looks like it simply is screwed/clamped to your mirror post. Do these two different systems work together? Meaning can I buy the part that goes on the mirror post and put it together with my current set up or would I have to buy this new blendmount set up?

Reason why I ask is I am sure they are going to have to put a new rear view mirror in my ZR1 since the onstar button has never worked and I thought it would be easier with this set up to take off and put on.

The Blendmount pictured does not fit the C6.

Correct, this is the generic blendmount, the one for the C6 looks like this. Whoever loaded our website did not use accurate C6 pics. I am getting it fixed right now.

This is what the C6 mount looks like.



Sorry for the confusion,

Jim

We do. Just go to our C6 Corvette BlendMount page listing and you'll see the mount, as well as ordering information and options. Hope this helps.

Thanks,

yes, the C4 uses the same mount as the C5 with the Autodimming mirror, for the Escort detector it is PN BVE2000.

Thanks,

I just ordered and received the mount. Fits great and it is easy to install. The only problem is, that you get reduced gps reception due to the fact that the detector is placed under your mirror. If you live in the woods like me, the main features you bought the 9500ix for, are useless with this mount.

Default Love It!

Ordered the package yesterday afternoon. It arrived today! Installation was really simple. Adjusting the mount took the longest (about 15 minutes) because the hex-heads are between the mount and the windshield, but the power cord was a snap.

Thanks guys,

Larry

I don't live in the woods but I am thinking about buying the package deal. Is the reduced gps reception a problem? I dont want to spend $600 and find out it is.

Thanks

I have never heard this before....Woods or no woods, GPS is worldwide. It is not like cellphone service (terrestrial) so coverage is worldwide. You should get GPS just about anywhere in the car unless you put it in the glovebox.

I have this device mounted with the blendmount in a Challenger and a BMW, no issues unless there is thick cloud cover.

You might want to double check the post.....The mount is Billet Aluminum....i think if you saw it you might think otherwise about the $1 suction cups.

I already have a valentine radar detector, so i ordered the mount and the mirror tap. Very nice clean products! I received mine on Thursday night, and couldn't wait to install it. Installation was a breeze! Thanks. John.
