9500ix with Safe-n-Sound1 Direct Wire Cord with Rund Mute button kit

I was lucky enough to win a FREE Safe-nSound1.com Direct Wire Cord w/Round Mute Button kit directly from the website, right after I got my 9500ix. I just bought a used 2009 Honda Odyssey Touring right before Christmas, so I was really looking forward to keeping the install as clean as I could.

I decided to mount the mute button & lights in the "ashtray"/cup holder since it's easy to see and the button falls in direct contact with my finger, when it is on the armrest and I can close the cover and even push it flush w/the dash if I want to.

The LEDs come "naked" with no mounts so i used small rubber cubes I had to mount them flush to the bottom of the metal plate. I cut the cubes to size and drilled a hole the same diameter as the LEDs and just pushed them in.

I have an aftermarket tint strip on the windshield, so I didn't want to mount the 9500ix too high up, plus at the level it is now, you can't see it from the outside unless you are really looking for it.


Here's a better picture of the positioning.

I was really impressed with the quality and completeness of the Safe-n-Sound1 kit. It came w/mini cable ties and even a free mini fuse blade tap and very detailed directions. The wires were the perfect length to run the mute button and LEDs from the ashtray/cupholder and the power, ground and adapter were long enough also.

Is your detector facing straight? for some reason that picture makes it look like its facing left. You should try to make it face as parallel to the road as possible (both in left and right, and up and down directions)

Awesome install though! Congrats on winning the wire cord! looks very nice, I kind of want one lol

DUI, it's straight. I just noticed in that picture, the rear view mirror makes it look likes it's facing left but it's really facing straight. The rear view in that shot is tilted towards the driver's side more than usual.
