Ahh but you miss the point grasshopper....
If this system is being installed on high end cars, it's only a matter of time before every Golf and Jetta has it. Next will be the Corolla's and Prius and...

If this is indeed the case, trust me when I say life with a radar detector as we know it will be over.
This was one car and it drove the V1 absolutely crazy.
At one point I thought the dammed...
It was a silver Vert that could have been a TT or possibly the new R8..
It was difficult to tell.
He was going east on the SSP and got off an exit or two west of the RM.
Whatever he had, it...
Thanks guys!
To answer all in one post:
1. Different power sources. The iPod adapteris plugged into the cigarette lighter the V1 is hardwired to the lights in the rear view mirror. They are both...
Thanks guys but I was looking more toward making the install stealth.
IOW mounting the remote display either in the dash or above the mirror, where my current V1 mounts.
By leaving the V1 up above...
While I agree with you somewhat, my personal experience with Exxon / Mobil has been good, and believe me I HATE THE FSCKERS.....
I was on vacation in another state and my Exxon card was declined...
I have a Belkin RF iPod adapter that plugs into the cigar lighter socket and transmits the iPod audio via RF into the factory system.
I realize this is not the best solution but I like my stock...
So where did you mount the main unit?
....mount the main unit?
IOW to *me* the remote display seems like a waste unless you are mounting the main unit permanently, say behind the grill or such and that would be a major problem in...
He was well behind me, maybe 1/8th of a mile or so.
Maybe more.
There was a lot of traffic and he never got close enough for me to see him in the rear view mirror.
Like I said he had those very...
Could be, but I see a lot of Cobra's and while they will interfere, I have never seen the V1 go nuts like this.
Bogey counter counting up, all arrows going crazy etc.
Like I said, it was like I...
It's possible it might have been K band because I think it was fluctuating between k and ka, in fact that makes sense. It was really going crazy though.
My recollection of it is a little cloudy....
Yea, but on ka band??
I've gotten the Infinity crap on laser, but never on ka band and NEVER a solid, going crazy like behavior that I saw during this trip.
It was like I had 5 cop cars...
Last week while driving on the expressway the V1 started going crazy with ka falsies. The arrows pointed forward, then back, then sideways etc with the bogey counter all over the place.
This went...
Sounds like a good answer to me.
Next time it happens I'm going to take note of how the car is positioned etc and report back.
Enjoy!

Well I'm *asking* not pretending I know, but I can tell you that something is fishy and it *appears* that some kind of low power mode is an option.
IOW, LEO gets his fish, locks the gun, pulls the...
Yea.
The gun pointing down is probably the answer to it all however I see cars with window mounted units that seem to do the same thing.
The RX65 picks it up as well BTW.
It just doesn't let me...
No no no no.....
You guys are missing the point.
Not ALL encounters are like this.
The V1 is latest level and working fine.
RX-65 does the same thing.
It doesn't happen ALL THE TIME, just...
To me this sounds like your V1 is out of tune, you never get full alerts?
What Rev is your V1? When is the last time it was serviced?
You may have a metallic aftermarket tint too...[/quote]

I've noticed this kind of behavior myself a few times and the only thing common every single time is that I am next to, or almost next to a large 18 wheeler.
I know in NY they are not allowed to...
I know people say that the current crop of guns do not have a standby mode but I have to differ. On Long Island the Suffolk County LEO most definitely have either a standby mode, or their guns leak a...
We have talked time and time before Mike V's service rocks. He is a true man of his word. Dozens of people have sent in a check or money order to cover repair only to get their money back and unit...
My V1, still under warranty, went semi-brain dead on me where the front panel lights would flicker, go out etc. If you tapped it they may or may not correct themselves. Anyway, this happened over the...
I just did this in my 2003 Mustang Vert.
What I did was tap into the wires leading to the lights in the mirror.
I used a piece of telephone cable, a fuse and an RJ11 connector on one end.
The...
LMAO!! :twisted:
Actually sex is one of the few things my wife gets right :roll:
I've been happily married, well sort of, for 22 years and one thing I've learned is that you have got to let...
