I bought the country joycrafts one and ended up putting it in my Lex as it fit perfect.. def worth the money.
I had that one in my Frontier. For the Z I went stealth with it.

The one i got from him had a decal which i peeled off, so i would say yes. PM him and tell him i sent you he will hook you up! the one for the passport and bel are the same thing.


I knew which one you were talking about

It comes with the clip for the radar detector and you just put it above the liner in the rear hatch area. Then I took a small piece of wood and carved it into a triangle with a dremel. Use 3m outdoor use tape to hold them together. I used that to make the concealed display flush with the glass and roof. You cant see any of it from outside the car.

The arrows make it worth it IMO. It never failed on me and I was amazed at how far away it detected. But again the biggest difference between the V1 and the Escort are the arrows which tell you where its coming from. I am not sure if the Escorts are upgradeable either, but I know the V1's are.

Olivia TRUST ME ive been around both, my roomate has the x50(blue) Valentine all the way, the arrows and bogey counter really do make it that much better, plus the fact it will never be obsolete, and V1's customer service is really good.
