Never noticed any decrease in detection (especially against well known false-positive doors, alarms, etc.). I've had it mounted there for over three years (on the coupe), and another 2 years prior to that on my 2000 Maxima. Saved my a$$ more than I can remember.

Rear detection is great as well - it's high, but not above window range.

As I said, I will snap some shots tonight.

 

Move to Alberta. Half the maritimes are here already.

 

Visor Clip Mount



Price: $4.00

For radar detector models:
Passport: 8500 X50, 8500, 7500S, 7500, 6800, 5000, 4600, 4500, 4200

Please note: Laser detection range is significantly decreased by the darker tinting across the top of most vehicle windshields, so visor mounting is normally not recommended.

Speed thanks in advance for posting pictures of the smart cord.

 

Haha, so true. I hear of friends and co-workers moving to AB almost on a daily basis. I lived in AB for one year myself.

 

Woah, dude...you are way lucky.

 

Or drive within reason. 80 in a 55 is begging for a butt-ramming.

 

Unfortunately, radar detectors do emit RF that can be detected electronically. Ask any Virginia Trooper. Either your area doesn't have the capability, or you've been lucky. In Virginia, having a detector was more expensive than getting the ticket.

This is but one of many.

 

I feel like a complete post *****.
