Until just recently there was no Blendmount to install a radar detector on your 2019+ Camaro 1SS/2SS/ZL1 (and C8 Corvettes) with the fancy (and awesome) rearview camera mirror screens. Blendmount finally released these a few weeks back (at least for the R7... maybe for the other brand radar detector mounts had been available longer?) and I had ordered the first batch and just now got around to installing it with a Uniden R7 into my 2021 Camaro ZL1. I also used the Gen5DIY wiring harness for a nice clean look.



Anyways, here are the mounts for those who were looking for something other than suction cups or whatever (be sure to verify fit of your car and radar detector):

• Aluminum Radar Detector Mount for Uniden R7, Specialty 2028 Series, BR7-2028 (for the R7)
• Aluminum Radar Detector Mount Compatible with EZ Mag Mount Custom Fit, BMG-2028 (for Escort, Beltronics or Cobra)
• Aluminum Radar Detector Mount for Valentine One, Specialty 2028 Series, BV1-2028 (for Valentine One V1 or V1 Gen2)

Feel free to use my referral code (I paid full price for everything) to save 10% (you can probably Google around for a discount as well): http://blendmount.refr.cc/willgreen

The Gen5DIY harness I used (for the Uniden): https://www.gen5diy.com/collections/...23149496303674

Helpful thank you

Not to hijack the thread but I have an Uniden R8 that I will be installing in my ZLE when jt gets here with a Blendmound bracket. Does the rear view mirror have auto dimming feature or is it only manual? It’s one of the options I have to pick when getting the correct mount.

Are you looking at the correct Blendmount? I believe it should be BR7-2028, https://blendmount.com/aluminum-rada...ries-br7-2028/, this one doesn't give any options to select for rearview mirror type and is for 2019+ Camaros as well as C8 vettes with the rearview mirror camera screen. Just be sure to select the R8 model in the drop down

I really like the blendmount option

Little pricy but nice

I have a 2018 so will look for that model

Is it pretty easy to remove the radar?
Having a convertible I jump out quick to run in a store and just grab it

Yeah, the radar is held onto the mount via a clip type interface.

Very. Holding the retention tab in the back of the mount, push the release button on the detector, then slide/pull it off the blendmount frame, done.

Replacing it is even easier, you just need to slide it in, the tab often doesn't even need to be touched if you go at the correct angle.
