Escort Passport 8500 Mounting Options

Has anyone found any other mounting options for a escort passort 8500. Obiously there is the windshield mount and the visor clip, but I was wondering if anyone knows of say a mount that hangs down from the rear view mirror. I know they have this for vets. If anyone knows of anything let me know.

PimpRice.......i searched here and 350z.com and found this guy, Mike (email addy below)....he makes the bracket with or without a Z on the back........$20......bolts right in there. I had to adjust my mirror and then adjust the location of the bracket to get it just right, but easy stuff..........if you decide to do the install like i did (no remote) you can use the power from the mirror for a very easy install........there are 3 mirror wires, black (ground), black with red stripe (dont know), black with pink stripe (power)......just slice the cover over the mirror wires (be careful) then cut back the insulation on the 2 wires. I used the remote kit (bought it from Passport) cut the "telephone wires" to the correct length, exposed the power and ground and then soldered the wires to the mirror.....i can help if like
