V1 = valentine 1

i have a V1 and the cords used look like "phone wires/cables".....this is probably what it is to

edit: and now that i reread your post, that is DEFINITELY what it is to

the "main unit" is the main V1 radar detector that you display and mount on the windshield. the "accessory" refers to an additional display that is generally purchased if you don't want other people seeing your radar detector go off and dont want people pacing you b/c they see you have a detector. its a display that is generally mounted right near the speedo
