Props to Attack!!!

Just got the hardwire kit from Escort in the mail a couple of hours ago and thanks to this awesome DIY I already have the entire installation finished and it works great! Seriously Attack, thanks!

I just did this, and it worked great. I chose the black/red wire that was running behind the metal bracket. I also put the whole power adapter/wiring package up into the cavity for a cleaner look, and the stretchy power cord run for slack.

I'm using the visor mount and just a triangular sunglass-lenses case wedged between the roof and the visor to keep the V1 level, pointed ahead.

It looks good. Pics to come.

One difference was that I used this DIY to remove the map lights:

Much cleaner, no force necessary to remove it.
