Taking apart Radar detector - ultimate stealth
Has anyone considered/accomplished dismantling a radar detector so that we could mount the sensors in the ideal position and also mount the housing/indicators somewhere suitable for us the crazy fast drivers? I think this would be the ultimate stealth and would not be that difficult...if only I had an old radar detector to play with...hmmmmmmm
Opinons please

Here's why valentine doesn't break down their detector into modules...
"Another thing; the really sophisticated direction finding and bogey counting that V1 has requires perfectly synchronized information from the front and rear antenna. It's possible to maintain that synchronization when the system in broken apart into units at the front and rear of the car, but you pay F-15 prices. My best compromise between maintaining performance on the one hand, and hiding the detector on the other, is the Concealed Display. This keeps V1 in the window where it works great, but operates "dark;" all the light-up warnings are transferred to a small Display that you can locate where only you will see it."
