where you mount the V1 is the best
Hi, guys
I'm a newbie to V1, and wanna know you all the experiences about where is the best for the V1 should be mounted, I have found out some installation methold as follows:
1/ insert into cigarette lighter, and then mount on the bottom of windshield
2/ hardwire the V1 to interior light box and then mount to the top of the windshield, just next to the rear view mirror
3/ hardwire to fuse box and then mount to the Visor
4/ place the V1 in somewhere e.g. visor, and hardwire to connect with it's Concealed Display on the instrument cluster, or at the Front Ashtray
5/ use Stealth mirror as a concealed display
6/ use Stealthone on the navigation monitor as a concealed display
Which is the best to read the signal when driving fast and furious?

Over or next to, your rear view mirror [RVM]
Higher simply has a better view
other questions are personal preferences regarding convenience and security (the Concealed Display can add both) that you'll answer yourself, in time.
Re: where you mount the V1 is the best
Try different postions. The one that gives you the least distraction and does not cause you to look away (take your eyes off the road) is best. As long as the V1 has an unobstructed view front and back of the road and isn't obvious to a thief when you are away from your car. A higher mount allows for quicker detection of radar. Different cars have different sweet spots. Enjoy the copilot but don't go crazy depending on it or you will get burned. Once you locate the best for your preference then worry about the cord (hard wire from top or bottom side ect.)
Re: where you mount the V1 is the best
I have it hardwired high and top the left right above the rearveiw mirror. I also have the CD right in front of the instrument cluster. I must of moved about a million times to get it were I like.
So best thing to do is hardwire high and just experiment with the location of the CD wherever it fits you the best.

Left of the rear view mirror.
Re: where you mount the V1 is the best
Hardwire to fuse box, mount it high by the the RVM.
Re: where you mount the V1 is the best
Get a Add-a-circut and power it off the fuse box and then mount the RD as high view a clear view of the road. Make sure the RD IS LEVEL! That is how I have mine mounted and have had the best performance!!!
Re: where you mount the V1 is the best
Highest point possible on the windshield near the RVM.
