MAn that would be cool as hell, it would certainly make for easy view of the detector. My problem is hearing the detector oive rmy loud music. I wanmt to heasr it but sometimes it gets so irritating. I have a bel 950, any clues on how to make the sound louder.

I called this company about a year ago because I wanted this setup in my TL. I don't remember what the exact cost was, but I remember it was around $2300. I was like "uuuhh... no thank you". I'd be interested to see what the setup goes for now.

Hey Iridium, still think it sucks to be a Northeasterner? I'll post pics once they finish my V1 in the rearview mirror.

I had mine for 2 weeks. It sucked so bad that I returned it. It went off ALL the time and it was always showing 8 alarms on the display. I probably had a defective one, but I decided it was just a waste anyway. It's been 13 months now, and I still don't miss it.

You know, I almost felt the same way. I personally think most "good" detectors are all the same. I should have saved myself $200 and got the ESCORT

ya'll are crazy. once you learn how to use the V1, you know what signals are good and what are not. The arrows have definitely come in handy. When you have a pair of signals come on, it's usually a supermarket or some sort b/c doors go off in pairs. one thing i wish i could is to be able to mute all X band, it's about worthless.

Not impressed,... false alarms? damn, people ....... ok .. first off, in a city it should pretty much always be set on advanced logic or u get fake bleeps all the time, second, it should be mounted in a good place.. and if u have metallized tints on your car that will affect it also ..... this is the best detector for the money simply for the fact that it tells u where the signal is coming from ... anyways.. i'm done ranting

My V1 went off with all arrows (front, side & back) all the time, like every 15 seconds no matter what setting it was on. I would drive and it would go off like crazy always reading 6,7 or 8 alarms on the display. I was a piece of junk. My friend has one (an older model) in his TL and his works fine. I'm guessing I just caught a bad one, but it still wasn't worth $400.
