Hard Wire Radar Detector/Camera in about 15 minutes

[Hernandooo]

In construction zones in my area, they post up radar devices along the highway that caused my detector to show Ka band signals coming from all directions at varying strengths and it was for about 2-3 miles. It wasn't a glitch.

the detector I have saves those false readings and stores them. Usually they're in the 24.xxx khz range. The highway patrol here are usually on 34.xxx khz, and they leave their radar on at all times.

Awesome - i wish i could find a ka speed sign for testing. What frequency?

I can set a gps lockout that will auto mute by location for those with a signal strength level threshold that would allow strong signals to over ride the lockout. Even with the lockout i still get a visual alert but auto muted and grayed out.

This sounds like my Escort Max 360c. Do you have one of those? I haven't used a detector since I sold my GT-R...I'll probably have to update firmware before using it in the new Z

i’m running a uniden r8w in my z. im running a r8 in my daily.

uniden has become the leader since they released their r series - the r1 & r3 knocked the king (the original escort RL w/ rdr & segmented) off the hill many years ago.

escort is really not escort anymore.
they were sold to a holding company and have went down hill ever since. their newer products are slow and have issues with i/0 and quick hit shots. range is ok but fell behind the r series. the r series are lightings fast with the longest range on the market. v1 gen2 is as good but you need the jbv1 app to be on par with r series.

I put an R4 on this mount and very happy. I lately have added the insulating trim piece that you see in gray. It reduces vibration to 0% to the human eye.

It could look a lot cleaner but because I update the unit with a PC it doesn’t make much sense to worry about it. But it’s definitely the way if you go this route.

that’s the same here.

k is rare in my area. so for the most part i turn k off unless i’m traveling.

Looking good. The R4 is smoking fast like the z. Im mounted on the rv mirror as well with a blendmount

Couldn't find any other details on line, so thought I would post it here. Very simple. I used a Mirror Mount to attach my radar detector to the rearview mirror stalk. Wiring is super simple when plugging into day/night mirror. Black is ground and one of the green wires on my car was switched. The other green wire must be unswitched for Homelink.
I used this for the connection: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082V1245P?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details, and it comes in 3 sizes. I used the smallest.
Super simple

Which mirror mount did you use? All the ones I've seen, don't look like they'd work for our mirror.
