Hello! Has anyone found a rear view mirror radar detector mount that works with the R1T? I’d sure appreciate the help.

Do radar detectors even help, anymore? Seems like it's all lasers now, right? And cop sees a radar detector and you're getting zero leniency, I bet.

Spend a little more and get the one with the remote receiver and the "alert" portion mounted below the dash. As CommodoreAmiga indicates...Stealth might keep you out of a ticket.

I feel like it helps… and maybe that’s all that matters. I had to do a drivers license test, forgot it was hanging there but I just turned it off. The guy scoring my test did not mention it. None of the cops seemed to take notice either when I am pulled over for a heavy foot. In Illinois they aren’t illegal.
I was looking for power options, tried the fusebox in the passenger footwell without success and stumbled onto a prior thread here where they used power from the rearview mirror. It was super easy as plugging into pinned plug for the mirror. I used this wiring kit, and am very impressed with the quality of the woven cables:
I now am considering just windshield versus Blendmount.

None of the mounts seem to work on the Rivian mirror. The mirror stem is too short to allow any type of adjustment on the mirror.

@Firewired I’d like to see a photo of the install if you have one!

I would also like to see that. I just can’t seem to get anything close to mounting with that mirror.

I plan to mount my Escort 360c Radar Detector & 4k Dash Cam (Front & Rear Cameras) the same way they are in my current '21 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid (leased by the company I work for, so I can learn the ends & outs of EV Charging Life). The current cigarette lighter port under the R1S dashboard will have to be turned into two ports, by using plug-in adapter that has 2 Accessory Ports, 1 Type-C port & 2 USB-A ports to feed my gadgets on the dashboard, including 8" tablet on left side of steering wheel that's used in conjunction with Escort Radar (Escort Live app).
