It's the only place to buy one other than eBay.

 

Lou, i looked into it, Mobile Innovations wants $1,000 to install the display in the rearview and mount the unit itself in the ceiling where only the sensors are visible, they also said they could give me a remote control to control the volume. I am thinking about doing it towards the end of the year

 

i've seen a bunch of m3 guys do the rear view mirror stealth install. I was gonna do the same but my windshield is fooken infared reflect which blocks all signals including my radar.

 

The rearview mirror mod has been around for a while. What I like about installing the remote display in and around the steering column area, is you the driver is the only one who can see it. By installing it in the mirror, people behind you can see it, including cops.

While it may look clean, IMHO it's not all that stealth.

 

Yeah.. we heard of a company that intergate the the V1 interface in the rear mirror... An Application for a NBA superstar!

 

A better idea? how about a HUD system... ehmmm a Head-up display like in the F-16!

 

Ron Streeteffectz can do that too...this has been around for several years. It's a pretty good idea with one major drawback. Cost. Way too much. For that kind of install, tops I would pay is about $175 at most. Maybe $250 if I had a brand new '05 TL and the new V1+. A grand...no way.

 

Exactly !!!
That’s why the word CONCEALED is used in the description for the CONCEALED display.
