Valentine 1 into rear view mirror.

How's everybody doing? I'm sponsoring my friend, VeeralS05. We're trying to get ready for Hot Import Nights here in Atlanta, GA which comes to town in May 21st. My question is, is it possible to install a V1 into the rear view mirror of the Acura CL-S.

I know a lot about BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, & Lambo & I know it's possible to do it in those vehicles but how about the Acura CL-S? Here is a picture of what I'm referring to. Any input is appreciated.

Anything is possible with enough time and money.

I think it would be pointless though cause most people want it near the instrument cluster w/ remote displays. If you custom mounted a remote display into the dash around the gauges, that would be hot.

Probably a lot less than trying to do a mirror set-up.

Yeah, but it would look hott if there was a type of system that could reflect the V1 display onto the cluster...

Yes it's possible, i have done it a few times and it ain't no easy task, you will probally be looking about $400-$600 just in labor, it is a full day process. Real pain in the ass, And good luck trying to find somebody to do it for you. Your better off custom mounting it somewhere else

BMWs have the hottest remote display in my mind. Where its linked into the dash and appears on the digital portion on the bottom. If you could do that, you would be my god Plus I'm sure you could sell them for good money.

That's for BMW fitment only. I know my wholesaler can do it, but they're in NYC. I don't think my friend & me want to split the bill of sending the car up there, labor work & return.

Shipping: $1,800
Ai Design Labor: $400
V1: $400
Cost: Dent in the wallet...
