Before anyone asks about my car, I do not have the DID, so I am not blocking anything that is why I chose this mounting location.

The V1 is sticking out towards the passenger side of the car to allow rearward detection only. Otherwise the unit is behind the rearview mirror.

...I've pondered a break and enter into the overhead lights to find +12v for my detector, but it's not obvious how to pop the panel. Hints?

Carl:

I first removed the fuse cover, then the fuse box got the screws removed. I then removed the knee bolster under the steering wheel. That was actually pretty simple, 2 torx screws. I then was able to remove the fuse panel. I read the different fuses and just picked what I thought was not being used and tapped into it. Off the top of my head I can't remember which one I chose but it goes off with the ignition. I think it might have been the cell phone, but not sure.

Thanks... and then you ran the wire under/around the dash?

LarryTT

I ran the wire from the V1 mounted on the windshield along the upper headliner at the windshield. It then came to the drivers A-pillar and from there I fed it down behind the dash at the top of the dash where it meet the windshield.
