For a very stealthy installation in areas where RDs are illegal, I once recommended the user install it at the rear of the vehicle, up near the top of the rear of the car in a fake 'center mount brake light'. He ran the remote display up to his ashtray for a truly stealthy installation. He said it worked great this way.

To the Escort 9500i owners. Once you lockout a signal at a particular location, is it possible to unlock that lockout? I ask because there's a possibility that there might be two signals at the same location - one from a police radar and another from a motion sensor. If you don't see the police car and you lockout, you might be locking out the police radar and not the motion sensor. If that happens, can you delete or unlock the lockout?

I am debating right now whether to get the V1 or the 9500i.

That's why I am asking if you can delete or unlock that lockout later on (assuming that you somehow find out that you did a lockout on the wrong signal).

I just got one a few weeks ago & read the manual thoroughly. If you ever do mark a false alarm, you need to be aware and look around...clearly if you're going to be marking false alarms with this, you'll be doing it in locations where you travel regularly, so you'll want to look around the first time you drive by & think it to be a false alarm. Then next time you drive by, look around again when the alert goes off...if you're clear, then go ahead & mark it. Make sense?
