I spoke to Blendmount yesterday and was told it’s unlikely in the near future. Further I was told they don’t have a C8 to use as a platform but the real clincher is that after they do develop a mount for the C8 they still have to get a patent for it. Don’t blame me. I’m just honestly reporting back what their staff member told me.

I am just surprised nobody else has jumped in. Blendmount is NOT the only game in town. As a matter of fact, the mirror mount in my C7 is NOT a Blendmount. I don't remember who manufactured it, but I know for sure it is not a Blendmount...

Blendmount is a radar detector mount that enables you to mount your radar detector to the stalk of the rearview mirror. Most cars will take generic mount, but some (like the Corvette) require a more challenging design based on the size and location of the rear view mirror.

Since we are discussing Blendmount. .question...I have an Escort Passport Max now on my C7 with a Blendmount..
Thinking about moving up to a Redline 360C when they become available...Pricey Yes...but the features and distancing are much improved...Will my current Blendmount work on the Redline360C?
I just saw this...
