Default Radar Install

Anybody have any suggestions for a relatively hidden radar installation. I will be installing one as soon as my car arrives(mid-March). I can't have it in plain sight seeing as I live in VA. I tried looking for an existing radar thread but the search feature didn't find one. Thanks for any suggestions.

You will have to get a remote unit. Read reviews and such here....

How do you come to this conclusion? Besides your own personal use...

If you read http://www.speedzones.com/ on all of the reviews they have done, the Bel Vector beats nearly all of them in all tests. And now with the new Bel STi Driver coming out in Febuary you get everything the Vector 995 has and is completely stealth to all Radar Detector Detectors...

So, I would have to say after reading all the field testing that I have read "No they aren't the best out there... The new Bel STi Driver is the best out there... "

But that is of course all opinions just like every "what do you think" question will be on any forum...

And again, if you are able to "hide" a valentine 1 then I would like to know your secret cause them things are HUGE!!! Now of course if you really wanted the Valentine 1 then he would have to get the Remote Unit which is $800+. http://www.1-radar-laser-jammers-det...ne-1/index.php

Actually, this is the address to the Valentine One ($438):
https://store.valentine1.com/store/


If you liked what you read on that website (Speed Measurement Laboratories), take a look at these pages:
Laserdetection.html
proximity.html
overthehill.html
Don't see how you came to the conclusion that the Bel Vector was better than "nearly all of them"! Unless that didn't include the Valentine One and the Passport X50.

Ideally, you'd want a remote unit, which unfortunately all run around or over a grand. Another problem is that no current radar detector can hide from the current version SPECTRE radar detector detector. So if, the police are using one, they'll know you've got a detector, remote or otherwise.
