Radar Mount Mirror Mount + Mirror Wire for K40 Portable Radar

Our review of the Radar Mount Mirror Mount bundle finds it is a practical, no-fuss solution for drivers who want a tidy, reliable installation for their K40 Platinum 100 RLS2 radar detector. The biggest reason to buy is speed and simplicity: the mirror mount bracket and mirror wire let you attach the device to the rearview mirror and power it using the existing mirror plug without cutting or splicing, so installation takes seconds in most vehicles. For anyone who values a clean dash and a secure mirror-mounted detector, this bundle delivers the essentials with quality connectors and a low-profile DC plug.

Key Features

• Mirror mount bracket: securely attaches the detector to the rear view mirror for a stable, out-of-the-way position that fits nearly every vehicle.
• Mirror wire power cord: uses the existing powered mirror connector so the detector receives fused +12VDC power without tapping into other wiring harnesses.
• No cutting required: simply insert the mirror plug pins into +12VDC and ground connections in the mirror plug, avoiding splices and preserving factory wiring.
• Low profile DC plug: the plug includes a stress relief boot to reduce cable strain and improve long-term connector reliability.
• Complete mounting kit: includes the device clip so users have everything needed to mount and power the detector in most cars.

Who It's For

This bundle is aimed at drivers who already own a K40 Platinum 100 RLS2 or compatible portable radar detector and want a quick, reversible install that keeps the dash and windshield clear. It is especially useful for people who prefer mirror mounting and want to use the vehicle's existing mirror power circuit instead of running a separate fused lead.

Those who should look elsewhere include drivers without a powered rearview mirror or vehicles where the mirror connector is inaccessible; also, if you require hardwired fused inline installation under the dash for stealth or dealer-grade installs, a dedicated hardwire kit may be more appropriate.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Enables fast, reversible installation using the mirror for a clean, factory-like appearance.
• Quality connectors and stress relief on the DC plug reduce long-term wear and cable fatigue.
• No cutting or splicing required, which preserves vehicle wiring and simplifies removal.
• Includes device clip so the mounting solution is complete out of the box.

Cons

• Relies on a powered mirror connector, so it is not suitable for vehicles without mirror power or with hard-to-access mirror wiring.
• Limited to mirror-mounted placement; drivers wanting windshield suction or hardwired hidden installs may need different brackets or kits.
