Thanks for you help Dr. Bonz. Could not afford a V1 but got a Beltonics instead... anyway, your post (awhile back) helped a lot. I did have to buy an inline fuse at Radio Shack. Here are pics of my hard wire. Jesperanza

nice install!

 

Nice job. Looks clean!

 

Any chance you could find a picture from the outside of the front windshield? I'm curious as to how much wire is showing, etc?

Looks very clean!

dczoner,

There is about 2 1/2 inches of wire showing. You can remove the black plastic cover that covers the wire connected to the mirror (for the auto dim, homelink stuff). I moved the mirror as high as it could go so I can get the radar up high. Hope the pic helps.
