    Default Noob with a quick question on new V1

    Is the stealth cable a safe way to power my V1?

    And if not, what would you guys recommened and how much would I look to spend to hardwire it?

    New V1 with no power cord, can you say stolen?
    Fortunately VR requests a serial number for a power kit.

    No I have the power cord, its a legit unit. I just want to mount it clean and I am not good with electronics but could probably use the stealth cord.

    You can order a Direct-Wire Power Adapter Kit by simply logging on or call VR and order a Direct-Wire Power Adapter Item 20305 $13 or Item 00030 $19 if you need a phone cord as well, any phone cord with 4 leads will work if you order the first one.
    There is a parts page on the website.

    Comes with instructions or you can do a search for installations on this forum, good luck.

    You know the part numbers...I hope you had to look them up, and don't have them memorized...

    Why not use the direct wire cord included. Direct wire/stealth cord, they ar the same thing. There are 3rd party direct wire cords that simplify the process of direct wiring alittle bit easier, but in the end its all the same.

    I looked it up, Jazzy is the only one that is good enough to recite part numbers without looking.

    Hey, I have the stealthcord setup in my G35, very simple, just need a little TLC in plugging in the power cord into the powered rear view mirror. Check out these photos. I love it so far, it's clean and people don't see it if you mount it high up.
