Quick question?

I would think the same as being mounted by the RVM so long as the front of your RD isn't blocked.

[Super Dave]

I'm probably not the person to answer that, but I would think you would get the same laser "protection" as a high near-RVM mount as long as the front end of the detector is far enough out of the case to have a clear shot, and you have the detector and visor level. Now your rear laser (useless anyway) I would think would be pretty much ineffective / blocked. maybe someone else can chime in as well...

Also - I noticed on my Honda - the fuse I hardwired my detector to is the same switch that turns off the electric window buttons. You know, the button next to the electric window button that locks out the windows so they can't be rolled down?

So by pure chance in picking that fuse, If I have an LEO come up behind me at night or for any other reason I may want to kill power to the detector, I can reach over and click that window button and power is cut to the detector. To turn it back on, just hit the button again - instant kill switch. Might help in a pinch if an LEO comes up around you, has Spectre, etc. as to not be noticed...

Wow, thats an excellent idea. A kill switch within the power window lock. Is that hard to do? I'd hate to have to run a wire through the door! How did you manage?

I have read some people use a CD visor holder and it does the trick until you can get your hands on the visor pouch...

Would I still have good laser protection?

To be honest it probably doesn't matter. Laser "protection" vs busted with a detector, you choose your poison

That's a great idea! I hope I can find that one in my car. I was about to install a kill switch anyways.

[Kayrac]

holy crap thats a great idea, except i'm having a kid soon, and might actually need to turn those off and keep radar on :P

Was it like a big eye starring at you? Or did you have the feeling it was scanning your brain!? In that case, you could have just put some aluminum foil on your head!

It was like a big eye AND I thought it was scanning my brain. Luckily I had a lead helmet in my trunk so I just threw that on. It was kind of heavy, but it's better than getting brain scans from Mike V.

At any point, did you hear Mike V talking to you in your head!? If so, did he at least thank you for buying his product?

No voices, but the other day I was driving and got 1 Ka. I looked at the V1 to see the direction and I realized the V1 was off! It had transmitted the software/hardware into my brain! I'm a walking V1 R1.9.
