looks nice. I like the remote alot. Here's mine. it's installed on the dash near the driver side A pillar. I wired directly into the fuse box with one of thoes "add-a-circuit" blocks from autozone.

I've had it mounted in that location for a few years now (in my old car) and I have found no problem with performance.

I just pluged that add a circuit thing into an open switched fuse, you can use an existing slot as well and still retain both circuits. I grounded to the firewall.

I've had it in that location for years, haven't been pulled over yet. from what I've read, te rear facing sensor on the detector is only for laser. all other bands don't need a line of site sensor. x, k, and ka, bounce around inside the car and can be detected no matter where the radar detector is mounted. most cops using laser try to get a reading head on into trafic, so the rear sensor is kinda usless any ways, plus if you get lasered in the first place you're already busted. most people can't see where it is located unless you're sitting in the drivers seat.

Hey hadnut is this what you are talking about? Here

If so I want to wire mine either in the cubby hole by the shifter or where you have it, and how exactly did you wire it? THanks
Ya, that's it except a mini fuse size. You just plug that thingy into any fuse slot (that is IGN on) and then the red wire comming out of it is your positive lead. then just ground to any metal, I found that the brake pedal bolts work well. the fuse box cover won't fit with the add a circuit thing so I just wedged it between some wires for refference.
