Any clever ways to mount radar detector?
I saw the thread on internally mounted Valentine. Sweet. However, I'd like to get the Escort that learns false alarms,notifies of red light cameras and can be updated, and mount it the old fashion way up on the windshield. I'm wondering if there is anywhere to tap into 12 volts near the mirror or from under the dash, so as not to have a long cord hanging down the front of the dash... Anyone figured a clever way to do this?
