This is a mount for the Valentine One radar detector. It is angled to be level on my Acura TL. If your windshield is a different angle your detector wont be level which will reduce range.

You need two short machine screws and matching nuts, You will also need the included suction mount. I mounted the print directly on to the windshield with the clear 3M Dual Lock Reclosable Fastener tape.

You'll need the bolts to have heads that will countersink into the print.

order of parts

windshield - 3M tape - print - bolts - original mount - nuts

A new version with a holder for a tripp lite RJ-11 In-Line Coupler now made. The Coupler is friction fit and makes it easy to replace a shorter rj11 cable when the tab breaks instead of the V1 cable.

I do believe this design works with V1 Gen 2 as the holes are the same distance as the V1 gen 1.

I would be willing to redesign this with other angles in mind or with spacers for a custom angle. I would also like to make it easier to keep the screw/nuts tight as the loosen over time. Currently I have to remove it from my windshield and peel back the 3m tap to tighten.

Otherwise it's going over a year strong printed with PETG!
