i hardwire mine to the homelink rear view mirror. the reason why we would want to is because we wont see no wires hanging out..

just buy the hardwire cable from the company and run the wire along the headliner, down the a-pillar, and to the fuse box. takes no more than 5 minutes and requires no cutting of the homelink wires. If you can mod headlights, you can hardwire your radar.

so where would you mount your radar? do those damn things even work or just give you a false sense of security(?)

i have like 3 speeding tickets (2 at the long beach speed trap). something i would really want to look into. just dont know what brand is worth droppin cash for

The way I installed mine, not exactly 5 mins... takes 5 min jus to take off the a-pillar. Total install time was 35 mins.

Got the direct wire smart cord from Escort and a 8500 with Mikes mount.

End result:




I've since gotten a plastic gutter to put the wires together for a clean look




***I make trips to Las Vegas, SF and AZ and this unit has paid for itself off 8-10x over. I typically don't speed but it's those rare chances that make it worth it***

Search for "Mike's mount". Basically it looks exactly like the pictures the person above me posted. I have this in my Z as well for the V1. Mounted with Mike's mount, ran the wire up the roof and down the A pillar to the fuse box.

Well alright maybe I exaggerated a little bit. But really, I am positive I can do this in no more than 10 minutes now, having done it a few times before. Removal of the a-pillar wasn't necessary when I did it. Just pull back the trim that seals the window and you can get the wire running down the a-pillar.

Anyway, the point is, it is easy enough for the OP to do on his own. No need to pay someone else.
