My V1 is hardwired to sit under the passenger visor, but I don't really like the location because it's difficult for me to see the directional arrows. Anyone have a good location [good = discrete but easy for driverto see] for a V1? If so, can you post a pic? Thanks. GBG

For the V1 itself or just the remote display?

IIRC, you can also buy a rear view mirror with the V1 display integrated into it....that's been discussed as well.

Get the remote display and mount it on the steering column.

That's where I mount my remote. Works well. AS

Thanks guys. I don't have the remote display, so I will look into it. Appreciate the pic John. GBG

Discrete I don't care about...this is the best location for laser detection (and no, this location does not reduce radar detection).

Same location I use.......

Driver's side visor almost all the way right. Right in my face so that I can hear it over the drone of my Fabspeed. No pictures handy.

Them's fightin' words, Quicksilver.

Here are some ideas. I am thinking rear view mirror install. Are guys running multiple units? I read some where a guy used a remote box up front in the rear and one on the top of the windshield. That seems like a pricey project. I would also like a hidden front rear radar jammer.

Rear View Mirror


Where would you put your jammer though?

Hey John, for best reception doesn't the body of the V1 need to be line of sight of the source? This location may be a good fit and is out of the way, but the forward sensors are checking out your tachometer and the rear sensors are only a little better. I have my V1 below the rearview mirror.

I work on an Air Force Base in California and the Base Commander has ruled that Radar and Laser Detectors cannot be on base. I believe they have a seizure clause in the rule. The non-military gate guards just tell us to turn them off while on base. I guess the next step is a K40 or a Calibre DL-P with Laser Defusers.

That is only the "remote display" on the steering column, not the receiver.....

The detector does not need LOS to the source to detect the transmitted energy.

I read it's illegal to have anything attached to your front windshield in california.

It's also illegal to speed. I wonder if having your mirror attached to the windshield is illegal as well?

Seriously though.. do you have a CVC on that?

PS. With the insane amount of radar I've been getting painted with in the last couple of weeks I'm about to knuckle under and replace my Escort 8500 with a V1 to get the freaking arrows. I just wish the remote display, external audio and the overall size of the thing were a little more *reasonable*.
