I personally prefer this radar detector, tuning out the false alerts is priceless.

I also love being able to program in known speedtraps

Please keep me posted on your progress - I have made up my mind to wait to see what you come up with (in all fairness - you made that decision very easy).

Mirror installation
Mounting the display in the mirror is a nice job of integration.
I have a remote display for my Valentine, because I do not want the display visible from outside the car. In the mirror, the display would be as visible as hanging the Valentine on the windshield, near the mirror. Not my cup of tea.
OTOH, I have seen other integrations into the MBZ Command system so that the display is in the Speedometer. This is vastly superior from a stealth perspective.

I combined this setup with a laser jammer and is integrated into the mirror display. Even if the unit is "off" and I get hit with laser the lights will illuminate and the audio alarm will go off. Very slick.

What's up folks? We are posting here not to "defend" ourselves but to offer an explanation as to why we are the way we are. We know that we are pricey, but we put a tremendous amount of effort and skill into what we do. Also we package the Blinder M-25/Laser Interceptor system with our V1 installs to offer laser protection as well. This is something that easily take 2 full days to complete, between the cost of parts and labor we don’t feel that we are out of line. As many of you know with every new production model that manufactures introduce new features that often create new obstacles for us to go around, yet we still remain ahead of the curve. Being able to do this is NO simple task. We also offer a lifetime warranty on our labor for as long as you own the car, not too many people can say that. We also look for new things to incorporate in our installs like the Passport 9500CI that you can check out below. If anyone has any question please feel free to contact us.

I did it in my GT3, but as I sell cars and move on, I have found that wiring them is a waste time and I just plug the adapter in the ashtray and hand wire the wire up around the console, through the pillar and into the headlined and it sticks out to the V1, You can't see the wire, plus I change it out with the C too.
