About the BlendMount® BGX-2026 Custom Billet Aluminum Radar Detector Mount
The Genevo MAX is built for drivers who want compact, high-sensitivity detection without a messy windshield. The new BlendMount BGX-2026 is the Specialty Series mount that puts it where it belongs — on the rearview-mirror stem, not on a suction cup.
CNC-machined in California from black-anodized 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum, the BGX-2026 is a custom-fit clamp for select Volkswagen mirrors (Mirror ID VW-009, left-hand drive). It uses the MAX’s own hybrid magnet for a click-on / click-off connection, keeps the detector vibration-free, and leaves the glass clean. Factory look. Maximum coverage. No StickyCup.
The BlendMount BGX-2026 is the new Specialty 2026 Series mount built specifically for the Genevo MAX hybrid magnetic holder. Unlike the Standard 2001R clamp used on most American and Asian cylindrical stems, the 2026 Series is machined for a specific European-style mirror geometry — in this case, select Volkswagen models with auto-dimming mirrors and Mirror ID VW-009 (left-hand drive only).
The mount attaches to the rearview-mirror stem. You transfer the magnet from the MAX’s included magnetic holder onto the BlendMount, then snap the detector on and off in seconds. No suction cup. No windshield mark. No bouncing unit in heat or on rough pavement.
Multiple adjustment points set height, reach, and angle so the MAX sits in the dead space around the mirror: clear sightline for the driver, clear sky view for the MAX’s 5th-generation GPS (GPS / GLONASS / Galileo / QZSS), and a clean shot through the glass for radar and laser. Pair it with a BlendMount MirrorTap on auto-dimming mirrors and the power lead disappears behind the mirror and headliner.
Compatible BlendMount® Vehicle Mirror ID [Left Hand Drive Vehicle Only]
This BlendMount® BGX-2026 attaches securely to the rear-view mirror stem of select Volkswagen models with auto-dimming mirrors.
