BTW I am considering a Uniden R7 and need advice from current RD owners where the ideal location would be, the options being -
Under the mirror using a blendmount type of bracket
between the rear-view mirror and head liner
clipped to the visor
On the dashboard or in the middle of the windshield...
Are radar detectors dated due to all the other technologies we have?
False alerts due to alot more things having RF?
With apps such as Waze, google maps that allow drivers to point out where potential hazards are. Is buying a detector worth the money or just another electronic device that's not...
I wanted to hardwire my radar detector but none of the methods I've seen on here were really satisfactory to me. Most people suggest tapping into the plug at the back of the mirror, but that seems ugly and prone to failure in my opinion.
I think the better solution is to trace those wires...
Hey everyone. For starters I have a Beltronics V995 radar detector and a Blackbox G1W-CB Dashcam.
A little background: I modified the power converter that would normally plug into the cigarette lighter to have two wires for power and ground come out the end and soldered those to an MTA header...
