My Radar Detector is an Escort Passport 8500 x50

Potentially looking into an Escort Passport 9500ix, maybe next year, but that shouldn't pose any problems in the future since they use the exact same mount style.

Exclamation High Stem & Dimming Lever

Your mirror pivot is positioned at the top of your mirror. This coupled with your dimming lever will test the maximum vertical adjustment of the current blendmount design. Whenever you get a chance, please measure the vertical length from the bottom-most point on the cylindrical stem down to the bottom-most point of the dimming lever, when it's pointing straight down.

Thanks.

Sorry for the delayed response, the distance from the stem of my mirror to the bottom of my mechanical dimming switch at its maximum is approximately 2 3/8" or 6cm.

Thanks!

Post BBE Install & Review

I have finally received by Blendmount for my Escort 8500 x50 and here is how it looks!

Everything you could possibly need to get this to fit on just about any mirror is included, even the tools needed for the install!

The install was very simple:



The result was excellent:



Tight and extremely adjustable mount:


Looks clean and professional:






Fits like a glove!
Thank you MGT Motorsports!

Default V1 conversion

Got your request for a blendmount Angle piece to accommodate a V1 instead of this x50. The pieces are interchangeable, so no problem. You have a high mirror stem and a manual dimming switch, so I'll send you the long V1 Angle. Take a couple pics and post here.
Thanks!
