Default Well of course... oh and look close at the picture....

he's taking a picture of me while I'm taking a picture of him.

We were both on I-4 in Orlando headed to Hot Import Nights. He posts on Audiworld and RS6.com, but rarely. I tracked him down

The guy also has a Lambo, so he's doing something right.

I don't actually know him, it was completely random that we were taking pictures of each other.

Default Holy crap you're right...looks like he's taking video?

Yeah, he's gotta be doing something right if he's got a Lambo (and I assume the RS6 is his "everyday" driver). Can't blame him for taking photo/video of your B6...another good looker

Default Re: Have one and love it.....

Have one and love it. I keep it up on the visor and I can hide it quickly if need since I live in VA. Gives me plenty of warning with very little false alarms.

Default Passport of course.... here is mine...hardwired...upon MD THE BODY's reccomendation I got it and am

very happy with it...it has saved me several times.

I think this is also the best place to mount it as well

the on and off switch (near the storage area under the steering wheel)

and the most important..the mute switch..because reaching up all the time the thing goes off is annoying and can intrude on visibility if you are raising your arm in front of your field of view
