SL/R230: valentine 1

valentine 1
Anyone hardwire a V1 into a new SL500 yet? I am trying to figure out the best spot to mount the unit on the window (with the suction cups) before I have the dealer do the hardwiring. Also, has anyone installed the V1 remote display unit on a new SL? If so, where did you put the remote display? Thanks.

I mounted the V1 at the visor (putting on the visor clip reversed so the unit is closer to the windshield), with the concealed display unit in the ash tray.

No I don't, but give me a few days and I'll try to get a couple of shots, really busy at work at the moment..

V1 concealed display unit in ashtray - details
Sorry still don't have time for the photos but here are the details:
The installer took out the plastic ash tray and the concealed display unit fits right in. The lighter socket still works and I can close the ashtray cover to completely hide the concealed display unit.
