Hey guys that have a blendmount on the camera mirror in your technology package Denali or AT4

 

Have you noticed that since the camera mirror doesn't move like a standard mirror - your blendmount is slightly angled toward the passenger side.  What are you doing to fix this if anything? Have  you figured out a way to straighten it up somehow?

Same as above, Just move the mirror around to make the mount sit level, no issues with mine either.

The camera mirror moves and adjusts just like any other mirror.  Mine is centered perfectly.

mine is also flat with the world... but it is pointed to the side of the truck because the blendmount attaches to the piece of the plastic on the mirror that is immoveable?  Isn't that how yours is?

Nope.  It clamps onto the cylindrical stem behind the mirror.

would you mind taking a quick picture of how you have yours clamped for me please.

That is how I have mine also -- so in my truck that piece of plastic does not move. So the radar detector is pointing toward the passenger side of the truck instead of directly forward.  Is that true for you too

I have no idea why you are trying to move a piece of plastic?  But it your mount looks like mine and is attached to the mirror stem, you can move the stem (and mount if needed) freely to center and level things up.

Well I am just an idiot. That stem does move, it just took way more force than I was giving it. I was afraid of damaging it.  Thanks.  Radar detector is now pointing directly forward out the front of the truck.

 

Thank you for the help

The blend mount itself is adjustable for level as well

Which camera is that and did you hardwire it into the mirror power? I'm thinking of doing the same setup...clean looking setup.

Did a fuse tap. It’s accessory power fuse to heated steering wheel, constant power to garage door opener. It’s the BlackVue dr900s 2 channel camera

      Why does Mobil Premium cost 90 cents a gallon more than Shell Premium when their regular offerings are but pennies apart?

      Was all the way down to $3.69 a gallon but then jumped back to $3.99 just because for some reason.   Diesel floats between $4.80's to $5.10ish a gallon. I even saw Diesel #1 for $6.09 today but nobody in there right mind even buys that in the summer.

      OTA updates and radio still cuts out

      By Coastie05 · Posted

      Mine just keeps lagging or getting stuck on the reverse camera. When I turn off the truck, get out, and close the door it will still stay on. It’s very intermittent and I would not be able to duplicate the issue.

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I was checking out fuel prices at my farm fuel retailer at their pumps and yes the farm price is a bit lower than the non dyed fuel and was glad to see that the regular farm gas price has dropped a lot from what it had been but what blew me away was the price of diesel as the spread now compared to before the prices went up earlier in the year, diesel was actually slightly lower than gas which was a switch from the theme the last number of years. However that sure isn't the theme lately and definitely not right now. The prices I will post are not from that retailer but just looking at gasbuddy for the main city in this area and instead of posting the lowest price someone found I will list the higher price ( and that may not be the highest price, just whatever someone posted on gasbuddy ).   So regular gas and there are a lot of stations listing the same price for regular is 1.68 a liter, premium 2.00 a liter. Diesel 2.03 a liter for a top price I saw on diesel.   Figures out to 6.36 a us gallon Canadian funds for regular and 7.68 for diesel. With the US exchange rate it would be 4.58 us for regular and 5.53 for diesel.    Thought I would figure that out to get a picture of what it settles out like compared to various US prices and its about the same as the current price in Fairbanks AK as Anchorage tends to be lower. So yes, these would be the prices and higher along the way on the Alaska highway where they know they have a captured market !, for fuel prices for those beginning the long drive back to the lower 48   The problem is our Canadian dollar and going to the states that have the high prices, boy do we pay then !

      OTA updates and radio still cuts out

      By wxman13 · Posted

      Just wanted to get a idea of how many of you still have problems with your radio cutting out during the first few minutes of driving, my 2024 GMC Sierra still does this after a little over 2 years of complaining to my dealer about it, and OTA updates no longer complete, the check for updates in settings is greyed out for the second time while trying to install a update, my dealer took about a week to play around with it the first time this happened, and somehow got the check for updates to work, even though it would always show system is up to date when I knew it wasn't, now again 1 month later its greyed out again when the OTA update N25-F163BU tried to install, which ironically is the update to help with reliability of future updates.
