I've used my Escort on a beanbag mount but it keeps moving/rotating due to the power cord on the right front side of the unit. Will it hold in place?

We've used this for some time now - we really like it. It stays in place - no moving around.

No it didn't work for me. This is a very flimsy and cheap looking product in a very cheap packaging. I have in mounted right next to the rear mirror on the passenger side and have the wire running from the mirror housing.

No way to know without trying it. Maybe you can combine them if necessary by setting the bean bag on the cord to help hold it in place while the escort sits on the pad.

I tried the bean bag too but I drive crazy and it was sliding every where. I now just suction cup it a low on my windshield just slightly left center and run the cord to my cigarette lighter.

My radar detector also has the cord on the right side and is mounted in front of the passenger seat with about a 15% slope on the dashboard. This product unbelievably holds it in place with no problems. I've only had to adjust the radar detector once in three months.

i assume your talking about the power plug, this would be very tight it might plug in but the mount would be pressed against the wire which would create an unsafe condition. "Mount Factory" has other styles too one of which should work. good luck my friend !

As yet have not received the antenna....might not get it till round the end of the month. So, if you find out about a good mobile mount for the four band antenna, I would like to know. I plan to mount on top of a one of my luggage rack arms (GMC Envoy).

It is a screw on or wired on holder. The only way it would stay mounted is if it were tightly wired on.

I installed mine next to the mount for my rear view mirror. The power cord hangs down and can block your passenger's view somewhat but it really isn't an issue for the driver.

Judy, I recently bought the Garmin, love it. But I did need to purchase the bean bag mount as the one I did have was not heavy duty enough to support this Garmin, since it was bigger than my old one.

This mount will hold a lot of weight but at the cost of a lot of vibration. I would not use it on any moving object such as a vehicle or motorcycle, it picks up a lot of bumps and rattles.

The product is designed to be uesed with the Escort "Passport 9500ix" radar detector. Most up-market Escort products used the "phone jack" style power/data connector.My Ford product (ShelbyGT500) has a power mirror for auto dimming and compass (A Mito Product). The cord has two fine-point pins that I was able to jam into the +12 and Ground connection in the mirror's connector using narrow tipped "needle nose" pliers. It took me several attempts to get it "just right," but it has been almost a year and it works reliable with no issues.

Yes it most likely will hold it, I have just my iPad in the holder and really like the mount but I have to prop it on the dash to keep it up in an upright position, other than that I love it. Don

It's been in my windshield for a couple months and I haven't had to reposition it once. It doesn't stick to my dashboard nearly as well as either of my Exogear Exomount car mounts though. If you're looking for a dashboard mount, get an Exogear Exomount!

Not too sure, I usually only use the magnet part of the mount. Sorry, but the magnetic mount is great!

I bought the regular mirror mount and it does a great job holding antenna. Hope this helps you.

I used an optical cable on a swivel mount with no issues. I twist tied it to my cable TV co-ax and it has room to move. jUst make sure the cable is long enough to allow the TV movement.

It should work. No vacuum holding, just heavy. Works great on my smooth dashboard.

The rugged mount comes just as pictured. You can buy a mount separate or make your own as I did. Mount direct wires to your battery. Hold you GPS firmly with the anti-theft screw. I use mine on an ATV in rocky terrain and it worked great.

This unit is a powder coated metal of some flavor, there are no holes for mounting you want to permanently lock it to your set up, but I use it for my audio console for mixing music and live events. I simply put the unit under the edge of the console and it holds it well. The bottom sections have a rolled / folded section so that is puts the console up on a bit of an angle. I have also used it for two laptops. I hope that answer helps.

Most likely yes. The mount has a large range of adjustability and the clip can be turned so the unit isn't sideways.
