V1 blendmount

Does anyone know where to get a blendmount for 2 series or know of an alternative? From their site it seems like I need a BV1-2017 but I haven’t seen any of those be in stock for a while now.

Reach out to them I'm sure they can help you out. They're very good on the customer service end.

Worked like a charm for installing my new Uniden R7. The wire plug behind the mirror is a little finicky to get separated but if you move the whole thing upwards and slightly towards you, then it’s easy to squeeze the two tabs to separate the plug. The rest is super simple.

Thanks for the post and everyone’s comments.

I have a V1 Gen 1, thought I’d try the R7 given it’s strong positive reviews to see if it’s any quieter with other vehicles blind spot etc. It also has the very latest radar capabilities so I’m hoping it’s a good experience like old the V1 has been (other than blind spot etc and quite a few falses even after tweaking the bands etc).

Glad it worked for you. I have been using this same setup for year. Funny enough I loved my uniden R7 and we have it in 2 of our cars and I just moved one from my m2 to another car to make way to try the v1 gen 2 which is now in the m2. Both are great!

Finally got this working for my OG M2. The first time I inserted the wires, I got no power. But I shifted the pins around in the same sockets and eventually got contact.
