Default well, im assuming its fine. the people who made it are not stupid, and they know it will be put

on the windshield, and will be constantly exposed to the sun and the heat. im sure its no problem at all.

Default while we're on the subject...

how hard/expensive is it to hardwire a V1 with a remote display?

Default hmm.

everytime I look it up in the archives, that remote display looks pretty rough (especially whoever it was that mounted the on/off/volume **** in front of the mirror switch... that was hot as hell), and nobody ever talks about how expensive it is...

Default the standard remote display that you buy from V1 is plug and play and very easy to install.

its $40. the custom setup that fits the s4 can be found at toyguydesign.com.. prices are there too..

connections, and did a very clean job.
