I installed mine on Wednesday. It is a great solution.

I took a few pics, but didn't realize that my camera was set to only storing RAW files at the time and I won't have access to my main computer that can open them until Sunday, most likely.

If I can get to them this afternoon I will, though.

Brianja: look forward to the pics. I googled it though but couldn't find a good one. I'm assuming you guys routed wire through the headliner?

I had hardwired the detector before and had it suction-cupped up next to the mirror, so all I had to do was extend the wire a little bit and drop it down to below the mirror.

I routed the wire around the edge of the windshield between it and the headliner / A pillar. Then it drops down to the fuse panel by the dead pedal.

OK... as I had said, I took some shots the other day with my point and shoot. Unfortunately, it was raining and I was in a hurry, so only one turned out acceptably.

Here it is:

Looks good. Is it adjustable to move the detector forward more? Seems I would like the back edge where the display is a little behind the mirror instead of in front of the mirror. Thanks.

That is adjusted as far forward toward the windshield as it can be.

Here it is:
This looks very tempting!. Could you take a few more pics from inside the car. My fear is that the radar detector would obstruct too much the view of the road.

Thanks for your help!
