turn it down!

[createcoms]

You guys are putting me off getting a Mrs with all this talk about the wife not liking the radar detector noises.....

I LOVE the loud screaming in your face, the world's coming to an end style alerts.

Hopefully nagging will be just as sweet (and if my brain fails to register the radar detector alert and connect it with the brake pedal then maybe some nagging will act as a secondary alert)

My roommate hated the sounds my v995 made but thinks the sounds of the V1 are alot better

If it's a real threat, I like it loud! If it's a false, i want it muted... :wink:

Thats one thing I like about the Bel verses the Escort, is the digital button and level indicator rather than a old fashion wheel. I like to see level #1,2,3,4,5,6 whatever displayed, I am a nut, I like to see things set exactly, and knowing there are set exactly on power up, I know its goofy. Audio level 1 is plenty lound for me, anything more is just too much, no wonder peoples speakers rip apart.

Volume wheels are ok until they come loose. Then you have to open up the rd and tighten the little screw on the volume knob. I sure hope I never have to adjust the volume knob on my V1. I previously had to tighten the knob on my x50. Mk

Guys-

I had the Pro Park installed today. First ignition with wife in car... bleep bleep bleep...you can only imagine the reaction!

I just leave it off when she's in the car, she doesn't really "do" speeding anyway.

I got 13 years out of my volume controls on my first V1 without any problem. And what is with a knob (or wheel) being "old fashioned", as someone said? It's direct and straightforward; on the V1 for example you get a visual idea of where it's set by the little tip or the white mark. My experience with 'new fashioned' controls is that they are often far inferior to 'old fashioned' ones.

"Fashion" is a pretty lousy designer.

Wife <> RD, well that is common. You have to choose to ride with one or the other, I choose the RD..........LOL

My car comes standard with a passenger-side airbag, 8) 8) 8) 8)

problem is she won't stay in the car when it stops

I just turn it down if a woman is w/ me. Any rd sure will test a woman's nerves if they aren't used to it. I get a kick out of it. Mk
