This is actually the 2nd time this message has appeared. And i'm sure i'm prolly not the only one with this question but prior to now, i haven't had a reason to come up here and post a...

Hey thanks for your reply. So i'm assuming that they have the hardwiring kit already there? Because when i asked them how much it would cost for them to hardwire it, he said $30 but then he was...

So i just called Best Buy and asked them how much it would be and all that, and they were saying it would only cost b/t $25-$30 for it to be hardwired. However, they guy i spoke with warned me ahead...

It's all good. You've actually helped me out anyway. Thanks. So how do i purchase the hardwire kit from Roy? Does he have a website or anything to order it from?

Yea i guess that would have helped. I live in the Raleigh/Durham area in NC

When you mention a car audio store, do you mean a place like Best Buy? Would they be able to do it? I'm pretty sure they would be cheaper than the actual dealer. I would actually be scared to see...

Hey guys thanks for info. HOWEVER, i'm not too savy when it comes to electronics, except if it's dealing with a PlayStation, etc... I'd definitely feel more comfortable if someone that knew what...

Hello all,

Haven't been up here in awhile because mainly i haven't needed to. I have the 8500 x50 and it's working great so far. However, i'm thinking really strong about getting it hardwired. ...

Hey guys just wanted to give everyone a brief report of my trip that i took over the memorial day weekend. So just to let everyone know, i took it off Expert Mode and set it to Standard and i left...

So take it off of Expert Mode and just keep it Standard Auto?

Hello everyone,

I'm about to take my first "long" trip w/ my x50. It's only like a few hours but it's the longest that i've driven at one time with the detector. By it being the Memorial Day...

Thanks guys. Now someone up here mentioned something about hardwiring it... what does that do? Does it get rid of cords? And where would i go to get this done?

This is just an observation that i noticed while in Expert Mode. Is it me or is the font size of the different bands smaller than if it was in the normal setting? I'm assuming it's like this b/c of...

I actually have mine on the default setting which means that Expert mode is not turned on. I was just trying to get a feel of everything before turning it on. B/c to me it takes some getting use...

Today actually, i received a K band alert and i just thought it was the electronic doors b/c i was passing a CVS and i mean it was full blast. But then like around a minute and half to 2 min. later...

Thanks everyone for your comments. Only one thing i was suprised at the detection range. I would have thought that it would have alerted to it a lil sooner than what it did. And this was a Ka band...

:D

Hey guys... I'm always posting things i know but you guys have helped me out so much so i just feel the need to return the favor by posting my experiences and whenever i come into contact with...

Thanks guys!!!!

Thanks to everyone for commenting. I'm i guess one of the members is right as far as me trying to get a feel for my detector to see how well it actually works. So i guess i can lighten up a bit. ...

Ok guys this is really starting to urke me and making me wonder what's really going on. Many of you prolly read my last topic about my "first experience w/ the x50". Anyway i was out last night,...

Hey Volvo... missed that one. Didn't know that. I was just taking a look at the different charts and graphs and it had the same number rating.

Yea i thought i'd take a look at the comparisons and how the x50 matches up with the RX65 by the two being owned by the same company and pretty much the same detector...

I found that it truly is...

Hey guys how can i tell if POP is being used where i am?

Just thought i'd give everyone a brief recap of my day yesterday with my x50. Left the house around 5'ish and was on the road for about 25 min. (city/town driving) and then again later that night...

Thanks for the reply leapoffaith!!!
