Valentine 1 Install - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Getting a V1 with Stealthone. I'd like to hear about other members' experience in mounting locations for the Valentine. I found a few good ideas, but most of them ended up compromising or entirely disabling the laser detection.

Thanks in advance for you input and suggestions. Pics would be awsome.

Cheers

I always thought this is the coolest add on to that detector;

Don't have one though

Hi Tom - You're gonna LOVE it. Fun and useful. Scratch that - fun, useful, and mandatory. Try putting it on the windshield to the right of the mirror, as high up as possible. Clear view to radar front and rear.

Thanks for the info. As far as the rear view display goes, very nice-but I have many more priorites for my Beast before I spend $795 on this. Still - very slick.

I'm in Canada where radar detectors are illega (except for a few provinces - but illegal where I live and drive). I was looking for a more stealthy install, if such a thing is at all possible.

Thanks
(especially for the great pics)
