installing Escort Detector

I have a '21 AMG C 63 and will be installing an Escort Max 360 Ci ... Just wondering if anyone has any tips before I begin this endeavor... I'm mainly looking for the best route through the firewall for the connecting cables to the front Shifters and detectors.. I just don't wanna drill any holes into a Computer or AC line...

No need for a detector ,,, if you pass me on the freeway or street doing anything close 100MPH
Ill snitch ...lol
be safe bro

Just find a Airstrip and speed to your hearts content.
No need to go flying down the freeway , lastly ,, the streets are not safe.
Grease , pot holes , etc ... any factor in you flying down the road can = HARM

thanks for the Air Strip advice.. but here in North Florida there are several areas where "speed traps" are notorious.. and the cops have nmo qualms about manufacturing the offending speed.. thus I just like knowing where they are lurking...

Search hard wiring a radar detector on here several good threads. I used one without issue. no drilling required and you can run the wire up the A pillar simpy by pushing the cord through the opening. There is a fuse blank you can tap into on the drivers side of the dash.

Sorry to see no answers to your questions, just driving suggestions. Lol. I used to do some custom car stereo installs on my cars. Many panels removed, metal cut and drilled, etc. With todays cars, it freaks me out to even hardwire my radar detector. Try to get detailed shop manuals. You know how MB will treat you if you cut an important wire or A/C line. If you go to get it professionally installed, check out the company throughly! good luck
