    Meh, I just clip it on the dash I may get around to hard wiring it, but the STi is still mostly undetectable so no matter yet...

    Nice invisible installation. I'll bet he lives in Ohio.

    just curiouswhy go through all the trouble?
    I use the suction cup bracket on my 8500 & mount it dead center between the seats to get best recption for oncoming and radar approching from the rear and that is it

    this way i can change between two cars and two motorcycles in seconds

    Some want it just for looks, ie none.

    Others, it is illegal in their state.

    Last time I checked, you could still run a detector in Ohio.

    Cops around my parts are more strict with fines if they see you have a radar. I got pulled over by laser(nothing i could prevent anyways) while my detector was off. The cop gave me **** about it, asking me why i had it, and how if it was worth it right now. total dickhead, he ended up busting me for my tint, speeding and trying to prove that my truck wasn't street legal(becuase of sport suspension, engine mods, etc.)

    So from now on, im not gonna have mine sit out in the open.

    Cops in my area are a big fan of laser so after a few bad experience's i have resorted to investing in a Passport SRX Plus http://www.passportsr1.com/srx.htm . I put it in back in August just before i left for school and even with its absurd price its already payed for itself. The install is "invisible" to almost everyone.


    The flash helps show the two front laser detector / scramblers and you can just make out the radar unit in the right kidney.

    This is a better shot of the radar sensor that sits inside the power steering coolant loop.


    The rear laser unit sits just above my license plate, probably the most visible part of the system.
