I am not sure where to post this, so feel free to move it mods.
I just bought an escort passport 8500 x50 radar detector and stuck it to my windshield. To make a long story short, the back of the detector touches the windshield because of the rake of the windshield and rattles everytime I hit a bump. Does anyone else have this problem or any suggestions on how to fix it. I may just put some 3m tape on the windshield to absorb the impact or try to bend the mount. I know this seems stupid but if anyone is looking at this radar detector they should consider the fact that they will have to hear it smashing against the windshield over every bump. Otherwise I like the detector the grey matches the interior nicely and the detector has a lot of nice functions. Not sure how well it works yet, because I haven't seen a cop yet with his radar on (this is the only time I ever wanted a cop to shoot me with his radar gun), but it doesn't get many false alarms and I live in jersey, where the whole state is a shopping mall. Anyway, Its friday and I am drunk so this probably does not make much sense. Thanks in advance for your help.
