Actually it is visible when driving, but just barely in this picture.
Wow, where (how) did you get that steering wheel with the Porsche engraving?

It’s a VERY tiny die cut vinyl.
It is very tough to weed and even harder to apply.
I’ve considered changing it to red, but it’s too much of a pain.

Since my earlier post I upgraded to the new V1 gen2, and running it with bluetooth to the V1Driver (3rd party) companion app is SOOOO much better. It uses speed based muting like the savvy, but also incorporates learning with GPS to automatically filter out falses. My V1 rarely makes a noise now, and if it does - it tends to be a cop.

Yes, at least here in Cincinnati they do. Many drive with the radar on (in fact that has been how I've gotten most of my tickets). Having a radar detector gives you an early warning with plenty of time to slow down.

Interesting, Yea Oregon got rid of them because they lost a huge lawsuit where officers got cancer related to the radar guns ,
turns out leaving the radar gun in your lap turned on is a bad idea... Who'd have thunk it..

I hope the pics help.

Does anyone know where I can get this connector? Becker doesn’t make it anymore. I called them.
