    Default Hardwired my Escort 8500 tonight

    You might know RallySTi403, well, while i was tearing my house apart looking for my wallet (which i left at the Napa autoparts) he hardwired my Escort in my truck.

    Tonight i took it for a test spin around town and went to the dairy queen and it works great! Detected me of LEOs just doing I/O (i wasnt speeding so i was safe lol) and it showed me those pesky cops sitting off in the weeds. Thank you Escort 8500 X50!

    Looks good.

    Might just be the picture but it looks like you need to level that thing tho.

    Don't want it pointed to towards the sky!

    Yep, did mine a couple days ago for the same reason; I didn't like the cord dangling for people behind my to see.

    Did it with telephone wire.
