my new toy

havent installed the rear head, and wont until I figure out how to run it inside from the trunk

Can you post a picture of the back of your car? I might be able to help you figure out how to route the rear head cabling into the trunk.

Very nice install! That should be brilliant when interfaced with the 9500i.

Did you just mount the ZR4 module with Double sided mounting tape (3M) or otherwise?

yeah the display is stuck on there with the double-sided tape that they provided with the kit

heres just a pic I found out there,



I was poking around back there and theres a little phillips head clip thing back there that looks like it might go inside, right between the plate lights. . . I think it might be ther for some kind of optional rear-view camera, or something that might be offered on the canadian models (the only other country to get civic coupes), ill try poping it off and seeing where it leads, since the shifter head already has a handy grommet on it it shouldnt be too big a problem of leaks

Ugh, this kills me... Looks like the HDTV might be delayed another payday... I'll have to pick this up next week.

I wanted to wait till GOL '08 but I don't know.. this is just too awesome of an integration with my new 9500ix and all. I have a good feeling about the ZR4's even though RadarRoy isn't too impressed by it over the ZR3. Ah well, if it doesn't work out, I'll just ebay/CL it.

Actually, I think Roy is pretty keen on the Zr4 esp over the Zr3. The real weakness is the Stalkers.

Mem can you show a pic on how you got your wire through?

seems like stalker and prolite are its downfalls, but this was done on a white pick-up truck, its big and bright, so its really a worst case scenario type deal

and if I recall from my old days Veil kills stalker, so thats an easy fix. . . thats unless theres some firmware update on them that I missed in my 6 month absence

Music to my ears. Actually, I have yet to get a real laser alert here in NC (at least not that I know of but they were all from the V1 which I typically regarded as a false). The reasoning for buying the ZR4 is more like 20% prevention, 80% love of technology (especially ones that integrate together).

Thanks! You're like my guinea pig for this in a way, once you get it all set up (which you pretty much have except for the rear sensor), then I'll gladly follow suit! Yeah, I agree with the worst case scenario, my car is much smaller.. darker (black), and more curved than a pickup. Veil G4 is in production so that'll be my next step. Escort is about to make another 450$ off me next week.

OK I found my entry point, screw/clip I mentioned in the trunk between the plate lights, it does have hole that does lead inside, itll require a little bit of boring out, but the fact is theres a hole already there that leads inside right above the plate, I plant the jammer head on the lower bolt points, run the cable behind the plate and into the hole. . . now its getting my lazy ass on the drill thats the problem
