Remote radar detector/laser diffuser display location
I would appreciate any guidance on the location of the display/control unit from those who have had remote detectors/diffusers installed. Looks like the Passport SRX remote unit gets the best radar detector/laser diffuser ratings, so I am planning to have one installed, but want to keep the display unit as out of view from outside the car as possible. Is the ashtray large enough to house the Passport's display? Would also apreciate feedback from those with the Passport SRX remote or other remote units in their cars.
I checked into having a V1 disassembled and installed in the interior rear view mirror, as is possible on the 996, but learned that the CL's windshield has a metallic substance in it that deflects signals such that the V1 is only about 50% effective. Of course, the V1 has no laser diffuser either.
