Description
Already running a BlendMount Specialty Series mount? The new BGX-UC5 upgrades that mount for the Genevo MAX — no new stem clamp, no suction cup, no windshield clutter.
The kit adds the Genevo MAX magnetic interface and a 1-3/8" body link so the detector sits farther toward the glass. That keeps the factory-installed look, locks the MAX in place, and gives its 5th-generation GPS a clearer view of the sky.
The BlendMount BGX-UC5 is the Specialty Series upgrade kit built for the Genevo MAX hybrid magnetic holder. It converts an existing BlendMount Specialty Series radar mount to accept the MAX, using the detector’s own magnet for a quick click-on / click-off connection.
The included 1-3/8" body link extends the MAX toward the windshield and out from under the mirror. That extra reach improves GPS lock, keeps the display in a clean sightline, and preserves the OEM look BlendMount is known for.
CNC-machined from black-anodized 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum and made in California, the BGX-UC5 installs on the mount you already own. No drilling. No new clamp. Swap the detector end, add the link, and the MAX clicks on.
Pair the finished setup with a BlendMount MirrorTap on auto-dimming mirrors and the power lead stays hidden behind the mirror and headliner.
