Also, the direct wire control, http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/q...ectWireKit.jpg
and the CB: Uniden PC78Elite, custom built (I know it's not the prettiest thing) switch panel, and newly added Bel external speaker.http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/q...andspeaker.jpg
Re: Beltronics STi Driver
Note: the external speaker audio cable has been concealed and wired successfully through the pillar and up to the visor, but the power wire has not yet been connected.

Don't worry, that's the way to go, visor clip between the roof and the visor, the STI on the lower side of the visor, a "something" btwn the roof and the visor to make it level with the ground, a small book, a small map or more, etc., but be sure is not gonna start sliding off and hit you in the head when you hit the gas, also cover the STI with an ordinary CD holder you find it at any Walmart store, then put some everything in the holder, paper notes, anything that makes it casual, also get a pen in the holder, make yourself a hardworking self-employed contractor, with common-sense and... smaller pictures LOL
That's all I can tell you about my stealth install:

Re: Beltronics STi Driver
One of those neat visor pouches might be just the thing for Mgiara. Heck, he could even sandwich the STi between one of those CD visor holsters and the visor. Nice CB -- essentially its a slightly better version of the Cobra 29. I just gotta know what that left red switch with the safety cover is for.

Thanks for the advice Chris.
What exactly do you mean by "the STI on the lower side of the visor". You mean where the bulge is?

I've been thinking a lot about buying one of those MEM-TEK. The CB is disconnected.
:eek:
I know.
I'm going to set it back up again as soon as I but a new Wilson antenna.
I don't have any antennas worth hooking up. Just a POS RadioShack piece of junk.
"I just gotta know what that left red switch with the safety cover is for.":haha:
It's for the rocket boosters. :crazy_pilot:
Just kidding.
It is the remote turn on for my woofers in the trunk.
2000 Watts = have to turn them off when the po-po's get too close. Not exactly the most stealthy thing to have in a rally car to be, I know, but what can I say. I love bass.
And I know, having a safety cover over that switch is virtually pointless; less the eye appeal :cool:.
Re: Beltronics STi Driver
Was that too many smileys for one post?
Re: Beltronics STi Driver
All suggestions are good, but I could just save up a little more and sell the STi, and buy an STi-R.
I think ultimately that's the absolute best solution for my car.

I misspoken, obviously that's just one way you can mount any RD on the visor, the same way anybody has already done it, of course the visor is not level to the ground, that's how all cars are built, mine is on the visor but closer to the RVM edge of the visor and obviously professionally hardwired thru the roofliner... and always leave it in the tech mode, I guess that's what you call when you get the radar frequency, why very important? 1) you learn the radar guns (for laser you will see LASER on the display) used in your area and anywhere you drive your car 2) anytime you get a radar alert you read the freq, usually if it's a false (banks, stores, auto dealers, etc.) it lasts 1-3 secs but if it's a real one it will last for a long time (for instance a LEO driving half a mile behind you, you cannot see him but the very same freq for 2-5 min or even longer and it's obvious that he's somewhere behind you) so you start driving accordingly... the more you drive with your RD the better you will understand the equipment your local police is using and pretty soon no more secrets for you... about 150,000 miles driving with RDs so I think I gathered some experience in this amazing "business"... built just for REBELS:);)
Drive safely!
