Outside of the part near the floor mat, the entire cord is tucked away and hidden from view.

I have two child seats in my back seat, so I don't worry about anyone seeing it.
I have my V1 run down my A-pillar, and use a SAVVY to power it in the OBD port. It's fantastic because it's automatically muted when in the grocery store parking lot or when stopped at a stoplight. It also doesn't turn off in Eco start/stop this way.

I never put anything in this spot so worked perfect for me. Super loud so you can keep the cover closed and still hear it with no problem at all.

Thanks for this!

Where is the control pad so you can turn off the jammer once you've slowed down?

Also, where is the main unit mounted? I'm looking for a spot that is easy to access so that I can upgrade the firmware and settings whenever required.

Will shoot you photo of the control pad. Here is my recommendation. Get the Bluetooth module and that way you can still plug the control pad into it, with the hifi speaker, but you can also log into the unit with the app on your phone for all firmware updates. You will then never need to access the unit or use the USB extension cable.

I was thinking of getting the bluetooth just for setup/firmware updates. I don't plan to use the app while driving, because killing the jammer isn't as easy using the app as it is by just mashing the control pad.

The last thing you want to do is have to take your eyes off the road when you're being hit with laser by a cop!
