so i had my valentine mounted on my windshield but as some of you may know 2500rms does weird things to your windshield, i ordered a visor mount but when its on the cobalt visor the front of the V1 points towards the street infront of the car...not gunna work


anyone have any ideas? i thought about mounting it either at the very top or very bottom of the windshield but it still bangs up against the glass when the music is playing.

 

you could try the blend mount that they sell on ebay. that will mount it to the rear view mirror. i was thinking of doing that but its on old until i find the time to hardwire the thing. but if you just rather use your suction cups i would just go higher up on the windshield

 

unfortunatley the rear view mirror is attached to the windshield, so that shakes just as bad

im thinking i might just have to ghetto rig the visor mount

its real easy to hardwire btw...

 

Here's a novel idea.


Uh, turn your ******* music down.

 

heres another novel idea

i spend almost 2g on my system so im going to be playing it, i spent $350 on this radar, so im going to want to use it

gtfo ******

 

Is your bass rattling the suction cups loose and it falling off the window? If not, just leave it mounted up high on the windshield. I notice that the visor mount sucks in most cars due to the whole tilt issue. I had to prop my friend's visor with a book on his Subaru to get my V1 to sit level whenever we went on a long trip for a Penguins game.

There are no moving parts in the V1, so mild vibration shouldn't do any lasting damage to the unit as long as it stays mounted.

 

Lawl. You do that.

 

its far from a mild vibration. the v1 slams against the windshield, it dosent fall off the suction cups though...ill try higher on the windshield but the top of my windshield flexes too

 

Have you attempted to put stick on moleskin (Should be in the pharmacy at your walmart near the foot care stuff.) on the edge of the V1 that slams into the window? Using the moleskin should soften any impacts.

Anyways, if your window flexes as much as you describe, god forbid you ever get a rock chip on that windshield.

 

laff

 

the v1 is quite as hell (i can barely here it as is with reg volume music on or its obnoxiously loud) and that visor mount is ricockulous, haha. I would try putting something on the corner of the v1 to try to stop the bouncing or even maybe a small piece of double sided tape to get it to stick. I got mine way up on the top of the windshield.

 

The V1 is actually the loudest I've personally heard. Crapras are extremely quiet just because they don't pick jack **** up.

Plus anyways, if it is within your immediate view, you'll see it light up like a christmas tree anyways since the bogey counter, arrows, and band indicators all light up.
