Can't find radar detector mount cups, please help!
 
The plastic cups that hold the unit to the windshield, where can you buy those? I called the Radio Shack, the Best Buy, and the Circuit City, only the Best Buy carries $20 kit that won't fit all detectors. Spending $20 on a $60 radar for a pair of plastic cups is a waist, any alternatives?

Not sure if they will work but Valentine's website sells suction cups for $1 plus shipping. Check and see if they will work.click here

my detector is called Cobra LaserEye 6-band. I am not sure either of these mounts will fit..well let me call another local Radio Shack..

I just used the superglue to glue the broken cup to the mount bracket, and it works fine. Thanks for help, everyone

Go to any radar detector mfg. site and see if they sell replacement cups. Bel-tronics used to.

Escort also sells those cups.

In all honesty, if your radar detector is from the late 90's, I'd consider replacing it with a new one.

Bought a package of 6 at Walmart in crafts dept. They fit my BEL detector. Might need to cut a small slot to fit, but easy to do.

I'm sure those looking for cups a decade ago appreciate your reply :)
